True BugsBug found under Tree
Hi – We found this bug under a eucalyptus tree in Arizona and couldn’t identify it. My six year old daughter really wanted to know what it was. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Boyd,
This is the second photo today of Thasus neocalifornicus. That might be too much for your daughter to pronounce but we don’t really have a common name for this True Bug. The group is the Coreids or Leaf-Footed Bugs. She can call it a Leaf-Footed Bug. It is immature and the adult will grow wings.
