Pictured is an assassin bug in the Zelus genus, probably Z. exsanguis or Z. luridus. These assassin bugs are commonly found in trees and shrubs. They are about 3/4" long and have bright green bodies with dark highlights

great capture of this little crawly...man, you must have lots of bugs in your neck of the woods...here in forest hills, ny i haven't even seen one little black ant and there are hardly any flies this season...i don't know what the poor birds are eating around here...kinda scary...so if you feel overwhelmed with buggies in your yard, you can send them in a care package to the poor, undernourished nyc birdies ;)

Great macro. I cant#t take such a close up photo from a bug like he is. LOL I would run like a devil when he moves a little.
