Moved
Moved from Euphorbia bug. There has been much discussion over the years on these spikey nymphs. Given Hannah's research and Boris's comments here, it seems best to move them all to Euthochtha where most, if not all, of them will be correctly placed.

No, not wheel bug - the antennae are wrong, for one thing.
We have several of these spiky nymphs under Chariesterus antennator in the guide. Definitely Coreid, anyway.
