Hello!
I'm really not sure if this is some type of leaf bug but it had what looked like a leaf on its back.
Also reminded me of a stink bug.
Thanks!
Type of leaf bug(?) to be identified
This is a wheel bug, an assassin bug (family Reduviidae). They can deliver a very painful 'bite' (more of a stab with their beak) if mishandled - http://www.hiltonpond.org/thisweek030901.html
