Just posted some links
on one of Tom Murray's images about the genus Anasa. See what you think.

I agree that...
...mine looks just like the one at Randy's photography site. The only question is, is the ID given there correct? I've seen and photographed at some badly infested squash plants, but never saw anything like the green nymph in my photo at the top of this page. Part of it is the gray versus green color, but a number of other features don't seem to match either. Various Google searches also didn't turn up any Anasa photos that look like this.

Admittedly, these things have five instars, so some of the variation in features may be due to different instars. Still, at the moment I am unsure of much except that my photo does look just like the one on Randy's site.

Thanks for pointing this out and maybe further discussion will clarify.
