Plant Bug?? - Orius insidiosus

Plant Bug?? - Orius insidiosus
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
August 19, 2010
Size: Miniscule!!! 1/4" or less
This tiny bug was so small I 'barely' noticed it. The image has been sharpened and brightened a little to better the chance of an ID. At first I thought it might be a Tarnished Plant Bug but I just don't know.

Definitely an Orius... they are often found on flowers in large numbers! I have seen very few anthocorids other than Orius on flowers except for maybe the rare Anthocoris (which this is most def not)
