Tiny ant-like Assassin Bug (Reduviidae, Hemiptera) on Wild Blackberry (Rubus ursinus, Rosaceae)

I noticed this tiny Assassin Bug (family Reduviidae ) in the insect order Hemiptera on a leaf of native Wild Blackberry (Rubus ursinus) in the Rosaceae plant family this morning. You can see its proboscis folded under its head. (San Marcos Pass, 10 June 2012)

 

This little critter looks a lot like an ant, especially when it moves - but less so motionless in a photo. We have better ant-mimic Hemiptera in the mountains, and I hope to get a photo soon.
