We have these things crawling all over the place and I can't find a proper identification for them. They're, approx 1/4in long, and I'm in WA State.
I *thought* that they were Western Conifer Seed bugs, but they are too small and don't have the distinctive, black and white patches along the edge; and subsequent web searches came up with one ID of an Assassin Bug. But, it doesn't look like ANY assassin I can find, outside of that one ID.
So, I'm turning to the local knowledge base for some help
Thanks in advance, and here's the critter.
