Big-eyed Toad Bug -
Gelastocoris oculatus
Wildwood Park; Radford, Virginia, USA
October 12, 2011
I'd like an Id, please.
At first I thought that this might be a stink bug nymph, but then it jumped rather than flew off the leaf into shallow water. It was well camouflaged on the rocks.

Thanks,
I appreciate that Id. I thought that my pic looked a lot like a frog!
