Galgupha is a genus of small bugs in the family Corimelaenidae, commonly referred to as "ebony bugs" or sometimes included within the broader group of shield bugs due to their compact, rounded, and shiny appearance. These insects are typically dark-colored, often black or brown, and have a domed, beetle-like shape that helps protect them from predators and environmental hazards. Galgupha species are generally found on or near the ground, where they feed on plant juices, often favoring seeds and low vegetation.
