This one is an assassin bug nymph. It has the shorter proboscis. The others may be leaf-footed stinkbugs because of the aggregation. But at this instar, I would think the widening in the tibia would be noticable. Therefore, I recommended the other tests: number of dots on the back, and whether or not they were eating the plant.
