I am an Idioderma virescens
In the south-eastern US I'm a common true bug
True bugs have incomplete metamorphosis
Click below for a website Dee loves. 

Note from Dee: I was researching this bug and I couldn't find a lot of information about it, but my search did turn up this amazing site that shows how all life on earth is related. It is just too cool. Warning to nature/science nerds: don't click if you have to do something important in the next few hours:-)
