Anyone know what this is, I’ve seen it on my plants twice now ( rubber plant and Monstera) but just had one jump on my leg before coming inside from my porch 👀 google is very unhelpful

Invasive bug, go by a buncha names but it’s scientific name is Arocatus melonocephalus or reg the elm seed bug.

Thank you 😊

SimplyAnita is right. I took a screenshot with my iPhone and it identifies bugs in photos.

Thank you I tried with my phone but it wasn’t recognizing it

Is it wide or is it long? It looks a little like a stink bug, but it also looks too narrow to be one.

#### Amanda님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

Is short and narrow

#### D.V.님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

Hmm. Not a stink bug then, they’re wide. I suspect the above person’s comment is correct, I googled that bug and it looks a lot like that.

#### Amanda님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

Thank you 😊

It may be a cicade.

#### Amanda님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

Can they be that small? It’s really small photo is zoomed In

#### Waspinator님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

Definitely not a cicada; those are very large and look like this in overall shape

Maybe not im no bug expert that was just a guess. Maybe use a bug identifier app.

AAAAAAaaaahhhhhh  
I’d have passed out!!!  
So what was it??  
Was it in you outdoor or indoor plants???

#### Amanda님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

I saw it in an indoor plant but then one jumped on my leg coming in from watering plants on my porch… I did almost pass out lol

#### Newbie님이 2025-07-10에 답변했습니다.

So there’s an elm tree outside my house and I recently took a Window unit out right in front of that tree. The window wasn’t sealed properly after taking out the unit.  
So I can’t be certain but I think it just came in the window crack. I haven’t seen anymore except outside and I’ve investigated like a crack head lol 🙅‍♀️😅  
It was on one of my monsteras @SAS

just bought a “cat palm’ which needs repotting. I use ORGANIC MIRACLE GROW indoors for just about everything. Any other recommendations? Thank you!
