Your letter to the bugman: I was walking around Cahuita, Costa Rica the other day and found this lovely white bug. I think it’s part of the Mesquite family but I want to know which specifically as I cannot find any photos online with the same colour way or patterns. Thanks
How you want your letter signed: J
Dear J,
This is a True Bug nymph and it might be a relative of a Giant Mesquite Bug. We have several images of this nymph, also from Costa Rica, that were submitted to our site in 2015 that we never conclusively identified. At that time we speculated they were in the genus Thasus like the Giant Mesquite Bug.
