Lace bugs, basswood (Gargaphia tiliae)

Reveler Conservation Area. I find these lace bugs amazingly delicate and intricate and just so pretty! They are very small at about 4mm, and usually found on undersides of leaves, often a mix of adults and nymphs together. Their feeding habits cause the leaves to turn a mottled brown.
