Found these two little guys stuck together on my morning walk, could you ID them?
Tx, USA
These fellas really took me on a journey since there are so many different types of bugs that can have this exact coloration as well as this general shape. But they appear to be eastern regal oak mirid bugs, Pseudoxenetus regalis :)

a tiny and colorful little friend! found in the summer, in new mexico :) he has a proboscis and an abdomen that curls inward like a shrimp
would love an ID if possible!
It's a mirid plant bug, and probably one in the genus Pseudoloxops. They're not common in the US and are usually found in Europe and Asia but they are plant feeders so it's not surprising they occasionally make their way to the US via plants.

Wanted to share this lovely half-buried Meloe sp. I found last year. I actually didn’t realize what they were until I looked at this photo later, so I am very glad I didn’t try to remove them from their little hole in the dirt!
Green fella is a mirid plant bug! Dunno which exact species offhand. And what a lovely oil beetle woman! They dig nests to lay their eggs underground, so I imagine that’s what she’s doing.
They have in interesting life cycle - larvae hatch from underground, climb up and hang out on flowers until a bee visits - they will then crawl onto a bee and ride her back to her nest where they will crawl off her body and feed on provisions and larvae in her nest. They only eat the larvae because they happen to be there, but don’t strictly NEED them as a source of food. Which bee species they use as a host depends on the species of oil beetle.
@shanzhuyuu submitted: Hi! These are some bugs I found while travelling across [removed] (please remove the location). I have a lot more, but these are the ones I haven't seen before, so I need help with ID-ing them. There are a lot, so you don't have to be precise with all of them if you don't wanna, just Genus is fine
The guy below lookes like a Chafer, but it was a lot smaller, maybe a different type? (Two different bugs, but I'm pretty sure they are the same species)
Very long slugs as a bonus! (😳😳)
Probably some of them the best I can do is an order or family, not genus. Often I need clearer/closer/better lit photos to see enough details to ID specifically.
But in order from the top:
Some kind of hemipteran, probably a plant bug in Miridae
Broad-nosed weevil in Entiminae
Knotweed leaf beetle
Male non-biting midge in Chironomidae
Some kind of wood wasp, probably an alder wood wasp
Mayfly
Scarab beetle, too vaguely brown to ID
And another scarab, but it doesn't look like the same species to me
2 very long leopard slugs playing tag!
@butchtoads submitted: Hello! Could I please request a bug identification for this funky little dude? Found in [removed] California (please remove the city! You can keep the state).
Hi there! Looks like a mirid plant but, though I'm not confident on the species without more photos. Maybe a potato mirid.

@faggomorph submitted: Hey there! i haven't seen many bugs nowadays that it's cold out, but i wanted to share some that i found over the warmer months :]
Black swallowtail caterpillar! very cute. caterpillars are some of my favorites, im a sucker for anything with lots of little legs
some sort of calligrapher flies. it was hard to get a good shot of these since they're so small. i remember one of them landed right on my nose!
i think this is a tarnished plant bug, this photo is one of my favorites :)
INaturalist tells me this one is a Peck's Skipper. very fuzzy fellow
aaand lots of Harlequin bug nymphs! i love the patterns on them, they're very fashionable little guys.
that's all, hope you enjoy them ❤️
Hello! I enjoy all of these friends deeply, thank you. Espcially the skipper........effervescent :)
@2somethingelseyoumightknow2 submitted: Hi hi, found this bug on the train window, could you help me identify this little guy? (From Alberta Edmonton btw ^_^)
Hi there! I can! It’s a mirid plant bug, probably in the genus Lygus :)
@nerdpiggy submitted: (Massachusetts) lil buggy hitched a ride home with me the other day. do you know this guy? whats their name
She looks like a Sylvia to me! And also a mirid bug, which is a type of true bug. Probably a common green capsid :)
