I found this bug at the Nicaragua Butterfly Reserva this weekend.
It is located about 5 km west of Granada and close to Laguna de Apoyo.
Does anyone know what it is?

shape suggest a Plant Bug of some kind - nothing that fancy in the UK unfortunately. Good exposure/composition.

Thanks for the comments
I had seen this bug on a previous visit and the locals called it a 'chink' bug because of the noise it makes but nobody knew what it is really called.
