Continental United States of America and of Mexico are where desert stink bugs live.

Specifically, the bug in question carries the scientific name Chlorochroa osborni. It carries the additional common name of terrestrial turtle bug in English. It is not well-known since it ranks among the lesser-studied insects. It tends to be a familiar form of stink bug in Oklahoma and Texas even though its feeding does not get as much out of hand as its relatives, such as the exotic invader called the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys). Its species name tracks back to Henry Fairfield Osborn (1857-1935), a 19th- and 20th-century educator at Columbia and Princeton Universities and the American Museum of Natural History's vertebrate Paleontology curator (1891-1909) and president (1909-1933).
