Leaf-footed Bug Nymph

Found on (what I think is) a Desert Hackberry (Celtis pallida); I suspect this may be a nymph of Leptoglossus oppositus as I found an adult earlier about a mile away, and due to it's similarity to . Thank you for your help.

Leptoglossus clypealis?
I think I see spiny tylus.

Could very well be Leptoglossus. However, I'm not sure we can rule out Narnia.

 
Thank you Ken
I so much appreciate your help, as always. There aren't many examples to check. I notice from my photos of Narnia fermorata nymphs (which are the most common here) that they usually have a dark area around the 2 abdominal prominences, no strips on the hind femur, and relatively narrow antennal first segments. Just some of the features for future people to consider, I don't know if they would be significant or not. Perhaps with more examples in the future... Thanks again.
