Description
Nabis americoferus (Hemiptera: Nabidae), also known as the Damsel Bug, is a native, widely distributed species across North America. Adults are slender and brown to tan in color, measuring about 10–13 mm in length. They possess well-developed piercing-sucking mouthparts and spiny, raptorial front legs, which they use for capturing prey. Both nymphs and adults are generalist predators.
