I am not really sure if this is an ambush or assassin bug? Does anyone know? My first thought was that it is a member of the former, however it lacks the typical crab-like grasping foreleg.
Assassin bugs are another diverse group of insects belonging the family Reduviidae (suborder Heteroptera of the order Hemiptera). Over 7000 species have been described, most of which are predatory. Most members of the family are fairly easily recognizable; they have a relatively narrow neck, sturdy build, and formidable curved proboscis (sometimes called a rostrum).
Ambush bugs belong to the insect subfamily Phymatinae, They are called ambush bugs feed because of their habit of lying in wait for prey. They are successful in this mode of hunting because they have superb camouflage and crab-like grasping forelegs (which I do not see here?). They are able to capture prey ten or more times their own size.
Assassin Bug (Gminatus australis)
I don't see a lot of these bugs.
This one was on an African Daisy today.
I'm assuming that this exuvia belongs to the nymph that was next to it. Until I got a closer look I thought it was one of the nymph's victims. Kind of a weird scene...
This pale green assassin bug nymph (Zelus luridus) has been hanging around on some Salvia plants for a couple of days. It's very small, looks quite young.
"Assassin bugs are not feeding on the plants in the garden, rather they are helping out with pest control, so you would be wise to let them continue on its way if you come across one in your garden..." (www.canr.msu.edu/news/michigan-insects-in-the-garden-week...)

Name of this Bird is Eagle. I've captured this photo from my rooftop. The reason I've named this photo "The Assassin" because in the "Assassin'S Creed" video game series by UBISOFT use to symbolized Assassin's by Flying Eagle.
It is how it works. Let's say there's a massacre somewhere. There's an assassination, but the assassin never gets caught. I make people forget about them. Has there been a huge fraud? Call for me and I'll make them forget.
