not sure,has a long proboscis, as long as its body.maybe leaf footed bug
Looks like he needs to grow into that proboscis :shock:
I wonder how he will manage to get it out where he can actually use it? :|

Wow. Great shots. Love the detail.

I'm guessing a youngster (nymph)? I checked on American Insect Site, with no matched either.
One of the unheralded detail and texture kings of macro, true bugs. Bristled antennae are very nice. I prefer the 1/4 view head on shot the most. Color scheme and shape looks like the adult assassins I have been seeing lately. Haven't managed a good capture yet, they stalk deep in plants.
An interesting insect, well caught and it looks like a dancing monkey in some shots.
i really like it.......... :thumbup:
