[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hi Folks , today I have this photo of an instar tarnished plant bug , this would be a 5th instar , nearly an adult , earlier stages of this insect may be mistaken as aphid , they look quite similar , their feeding is also similar where they stab into a plant with their sucking mouth parts and suck out the fluids of the plant , they are consider to be not beneficial , as they are harmful to our food....

regards
Art
