Common Assassin Bug

Pristhesancus plagipennis

Habitat:

Corn plant in veggie patch

Notes:

Found this adult assassin bug with a bee whilst going outside to feed the chickens. Looks like they were sharing the meal with a number of other little insects that can be seen crawling all over the dead bee.
