Assassin Bug, common name for a long-legged predatory insect that stalks other insects. They are found throughout the world with over 135 recognized species in North America. Most species of assassin bugs are considered beneficial because they help control insect pests.
The adult assassin bug is relatively large, usually 11 to 37 mm (0.5 to 1.5 in) in length. As with most true bugs, it has thickened fore-wings with membranous tips for handling prey. When at rest, the extended, segmented beak can be folded back underneath its body. Its folded wings overlap, giving the back a characteristic shape.
All assassin bug species are predatory, primarily feeding on caterpillars and other insects. The assassin bug uses its needlelike beak to impale prey. It then injects a venom that both paralyzes and partially digests the prey. The body contents of the victim liquefy and are sucked out with the assassin bug's straw-like mouth parts.

Hard to get a well focused shot of this assassin bug nymph because it kept hiding from me. Fortunate for the aphid which you can see trying to pretend its invisible as the assassin scurries by. This drama took place on butterfly milkweed stalk/

The Assassin Bug is truly a scary insect. They have a curved beak or fang as it is known by, to stab their prey repeatedly and then inject them with a fast acting toxin that liquifies all the internal organs. Using that same fang like a straw, it sucks it's prey's insides out like a McDonalds milkshake.
Found at La Selva Biological Station, near Puerto Viejo de Sarapiquí. Heredia Province, Costa Rica.

Friday afternoon, wishing for better (read: not pouring down) weather. Time to photography another gaming statue, this time from the Assassin's Creed games. As usual, my beloved and patient wife was on smoke machine duty. Wouldn't know what I'd do without her help!
