Phymata sp.
Fantastically camouflaged black and green ambush bug with a triangular scutellum. It gets its common name from its habit of lying in wait for prey, as this one is doing.
Spotted on a flower in a rural garden.

Wow crazy looking critter. Thread-leg bugs are so diverse. Thanks for showing this one.
