Squash Bug - Anasa tristis

Squash Bug - Anasa tristis
Deville, Rapides Parish, Louisiana, USA
August 17, 2008
I would assume Anasa tristis. Found a cluster of these on a squash plant. My smallest nymph looks different for any others on BugGuide.

I will link these for now. If anybody feels they should be unlinked please let me know. I just wanted to show all stages together. I can just include thumbnails if linking is a bad idea.

First record in Louisiana on BugGuide

I moved these to the guide to help clear out the ID Request section. Please let me know if anybody feels these don't belong here.
