Large Milkweed Bug

Oncopeltus fasciatus (nymphs)

Description:

Bug nymphs of around 6mm in length. Red/orange with black. Could be milkweed bug, but probably too difficult to ID just from the nymphs.

Habitat:

Found in 'El Cimatario' national park, just outside of Querétaro. The area is semi-arid, with lots of acacia and cacti.
