| assassin bug - zelus luridus |
This one has been sitting on my camera for a bit waiting for me to figure out what it was. I kept looking up stick insects and their relatives as I had flipped through my bug guide and found no obvious matches. Turns out it is Zelus luridus, an assassin bug. I'll add it to my collection of weird critters you see when you do absolutely no bug spraying. (I admit I am however using mosquito dunks in the pond this year, they don't seem to have done anything to the damselflies that keep hatching out and the mosquitoes have been MUCH less noticeable this year.)
