Below are some images of an adult and other nymphs found under the same leaf:

Moved from not yet identified nymphs.

Beatriz,
I moved this back. After looking at the image from Abigail, I too believe this belongs here :)

Moved
Moved from Squash Bug.

What if
this was a different species? Other early nymphs of A. tristis don't look like this.

 
First instar
Since I made this comment I learned that first instar nymphs of squash bugs look exactly like this. If in doubt ask Abby, she knows.
If I have time I will add images of several instars to the guide page.
