unknown true bug - Phlegyas abbreviatus
Valley Forge National Historical Park, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, USA
May 30, 2014
Size: Maybe around 3.5 mm?
These images were shot during their Bug BioBlitz with the The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University

At first I thought Blissus (Chinch Bugs), but now I think maybe Phlegyas abbreviatus
