Currently awaiting identification by the Bugman. Photographed in Malibu. Any ideas?
Update: Mystery solved! I haven't heard back from the Bugman yet, but I did a little more digging on the Bug Guide and found out this is a nymph of the Harlequin Bug. Unfortunately it's not some lovely beneficial creature, but rather an invasive pest from Mexico/C. America. More info here.

I don't know what kind of bug this is, but I like its colors. Colors are my life. Through synesthesia I see colors when I hear names and numbers, this is fun.
Hey!!! This is Virginia!!!
If you see another one, please pop it in the freezer for me and then send it to NYC. :)
