Title: Hoping someone can ID this critter
Post by: maggiepie on September 01, 2010, 02:48:22 PM

These critters have arrived recently and are dining on my clematis seedheads.
I have never seen them before and hoping someone can ID them for me, maybe even have some advice on dealing with them.
At first I thought they were some sort of juvenile stinkbug but they don't stink when you squish them.

Looks like a related species? Certainly a sap sucking hemipteran.

Thanks for the reply, Anthony.
Might never find out exactly what they are  >:(
