tiny brown hemipteran - Xylocoris cursitans
Nashua, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
September 25, 2005
Size: about 1.7 mm
This tiny bug was not a very good climber. It couldn't hang onto the walls of the clear plastic deli container it was in for the shoot. It tried to climb, but always fell on its back. I took way more pix of its underside than its topside.
