Posts: 13	Can anyone please help me identify this nymph? I noticed this as I was zooming in on the maccafertium nymph. Found in North Jersey (Big Flatbrook) last month. Thanks!

Our bug guys are good, but they may not be able to make out enough detail on the one posted here. A big white plastic cap from a cat litter jug would make a good background, or any lid with a white inside. Adding a little water might make the legs, tails, etc. stand out more.
