Miridae (family)
Very small reddish brown bug with wings and a distinctive white chevron. Body reminds me a little of a wasp, shiny black with segments. Wings translucent.
Found on my back porch near my garden in a smallish city.
Alice, for entering the identification data to your spot you have to enter Edith this Spotting, then you can change the title (common name) and scientific name
Thank you both for your help! Let me know if I have posted things correctly.
Alice, Bugs (Hemiptera) identification depends mostly on wing venation so it´s really hard to make a guess. I recomend you to keep the identification to family.
If that is the bug, it says this is an Australian bug that has recently moved north. Thank you for moving my spot. I didn't know what an Arthropod was. Duh.
Thank you! I am new to bug identification. I did hunt up something that looks pretty close? Coridromius chenopoderis?
Hi Alice, this is a Plant Bug (Miridae). Unfortunately I don't know the species. I wasn't into bugs when I lived in Duck territory :)
