On Wikipedia

The boxelder bug (Boisea trivittata) is a North American species of true bug. It is found primarily on boxelder trees, as well as maple and ash trees. The adults are about 0.50inches/12-13mm long with a dark brown or black coloration, relieved by red wing veins and markings on the abdomen; nymphs are bright red. This species recently invaded Chile, thus becoming an invasive species.
