Plant Bug - Phytocoris
Copyright © 2011 Roy Cohutta Brown

Plant Bug - Phytocoris
Whitepath Road area, Gilmer County, Georgia, USA
November 20, 2011
Size: 5-6mm head to wingtip
Phytocoris is a guess

5-6mm head to wingtip - I could not see under wings, so the measurement is from head to wingtip.

Came to lights in a mostly deciduous forest at 1600' in the North Georgia Mountains.

Resembles Phytocoris: Maybe more like Phytocoris Eastern Group I - Temporary page for ID:
