The plant is a Fabaceae, in the first two pic. I'm still investigating. thanks for your coments, Ignacio Gamboa and GreenBugs. thank you for your comment stephanie.
GreenBugs, this is not a Reduviid, you can tell because of the "leaf-like" structures on the third pair of legs, and also the beak is quite long and thin to be a reduviid.
know it's a Brazilian insect...nonetheless, it sure looks like it belongs to the Reduviidae genus
