I found this small bug on my eunonymous bush in the hudson valley, NY. It’s about 1/4" long.

Hi Bennett,
Yes this is a True Bug, but more specifically, it is an Ambush Bug, Family Phymatidae. These small greenish-yellow or brown and yellow insects are usually found on flowers where they wait to ambush insects, often bees or wasps many times their own size.
