Do I get a prize for naming the bug? If so please check out the naming of the bug on Hills and Plains seedsavers. Here http://hillsandplainsseedsavers.blogspot.com/2008/03/maggies-little-bug-gets-name.html
It looks like a juvenile of the Green Vegetable Bug, a type of shield bug. They are the bane of my life, very destructive in the veggie garden, and they love the Solanaceae.
It posed prettily and patiently (I shot tons of pictures to get a few good ones).
