A True Bug -
Castolus ferox
Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, New Mexico, USA

Size: 8mm
This good-looking little bug was visiting in our backyard (elevation 6000 ft). He looks young, but I can't ID him. Any help would be appreciated.

How about this?
I can't find nymph image anywhere, but banded legs and overall looks similar???

suspect Rhynocoris ventralis, but it's not an ID
they adults very extremely in pattern, and i can't imagine any other reduviid with those bold thick bands all over the legs (there is another genus with banded legs, but the ring pattern is quite different)
