it looks to me like a Trash Bug, the nymph of the Lacewing. the "trash" on its back consists of the remains of its prey. it's a good guy! http://www.google.com/search?q=trash+bug&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=mO7lUYewF4r94APH3IC4CA&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1256&bih=611

Not a trash bug; this looks more like a nymph of a planthopper (superfamily Fulgoroidea).
