We went to the beach for breakfast this morning......sigh....
We bumped into a couple of dog walkers we haven't seen for ages....
They jumped up and kissed us.....

I have never seen that insect before, it looks like some kind of beetle. Are you sure it ate the plant because it looks like you have some kind of mite further down in the first picture. It could be some kind of predatory beetle eating mites?Anyone recognize this pest? Showed up on two seedlings and appeared to have munched the first true leaves. The pest is mobile and moved down the stem upon inspection and eventually dropped to the soil. I put diatomaceous earth around the bases and up the stems so should have them dealt with but would like an ID and I am having trouble finding a nymph picture of all the common pests.
