Ian Cooper photographed this curious creature two nights ago at Colquitz Creek Park.\u00a0 We do not know for certain what it is, but we assume that it is a bug (Hemiptera) and possibly either an adult or a nymph from the large mirid genus Phytocoris<\/em>.\u00a0 If any viewer has an idea, please do let us know.<\/p>\n
