Field Notes

Description:

These images don't justify just how tiny these bugs are. The plant I found them on, shown in the second to last image, isn't very notable or large. Several of these were clustered around the flower buds of the plant. They stayed together for the most part but sometimes wandered a little ways down the stem. Their abdomens were rounded and green and their upper bodies were black with reddish markings as well as their legs.

Habitat:

They were found on a plant growing along the side of a house and a concrete driveway. That side of the house receives a lot of direct sunlight through the afternoon. It is mostly secluded from the rest of the grasses and shrubbery in the shaded areas by the driveway.

Notes:

I like to call them tiny green centaurs and the plant might have been a nightshade. Pictures taken with iPhone 5.
