These are some pretty weird bugs. I have only encountered them on one specific tree that I still need to identify. They are always in the same position. This is the first time I have seen one that seems to made it to the adult phase. It looks like some type of leaf-footed bug.

Gracias chicos!
I think it is a leaf-footed bug, for sure. I've seen some very similar ones here in Brazil, but with different colors.
Wow great find :):)
