Description: English: Day 245 - Assassin Bug - Empicoris species, Woodbridge, Virginia. I usually see the larger Assassin Bugs. This one was the size of a gnat (which is what I thought it was until I magnified it). Date: 2 September 2015, 04:59:43. Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/52450054@N04/20582194313/.
