Zelus luridus
1st olive green and 2nd yellow (color varies) stick-like bug with brown leg joints and a brown line down the abdomen; legs much longer than body and the antennae longer narrow head with eyes on the side; in the picture the shadow shows the curve of the body and the bent tips of the antennae; about 8 mm long body; probably a nymph since it is smaller and has no wings
Students found it when we were beating bushes and seeing what fell out of them onto our white sheet below for our insect lessons
