I found this on a green bean (shown here) in my garden. I'm guessing it's a nymph of some sort. Any ideas?

Moved
Moved from Unidentified Naked Larvae. Agreed, this is a brown lacewing, not a green lacewing. Notable traits include the lack of prominent setae, narrower body, smaller head, and shorter mandibles.
