Follow Up No. 1: The assassin bug nymph featured in yesterday’s post was considerate enough to molt overnight. The exoskeleton of this teneral adult has not fully darkened or hardened, but I am reasonably confident it is Zelus luridus. In the top photo its discarded skin can be seen on the underside of the leaf. 

Please click on either photo for enlarged views.
