Remember, Hibiscus Bugs are Scentless Plant Bugs and do not normally damage plants.
As an amateur photographer and zoologist, I'm chronicling the fauna of my backyard from a creationist perspective.

Hibiscus Bug Nymph
Last November I found an adult Hibiscus Bug (Niesthrea louisianica) on our back porch. Well, a couple nights ago I spotted a nymph of this species, much more brightly colored than the adult. Since there are usually multiple nymphs in one area, I looked for others, but found none. I wasn't even able to find this specimen again. Moreover, it was crawling around so fast I could barely keep up with my camera! Aren't those markings exquisite, though?
