Blackest harlequin bug I've seen - Murgantia histrionica
Shipley Nature Center, Huntington Beach, Orange County, California, USA

Interesting blue cast as well; shot strictly with available light.

Wow,
What a beauty! Nice one Ron.

 
Thanks, Lynette
The bush sunflowers at this site are literally crawling with these bugs, the most I've seen in one place. It's great to finally find something to shoot in December.
