...cute or what? The last is another male flower beetle with the swollen legs like yesterday's. Lots of tiny black beetles were also present.

Good! This family of true bugs is broadly called the plant bugs. They can be identified by the characteristic double loop vein on the membraneous area of the wings, plainly visible in the next to last picture.

The Hemiptera (true bug) is in the family Miridae. As stated previously the two closed cells in the membraneous part of the hemielytra is the distinguishing characteristic for this family.

Thanks for that information Mark and rhadams824. I hadn't noticed those distinguishing loops before.
Thank you all for the nice comments.
