Any thoughts please?
I have found a bug on a Crassula arborescens and I have no idea of what it might be, whether friend or foe. Not easy to photograph as it's completely transparent!

No idea! But it's the cast skin, with no bug in residence, so you may have to look elsewhere for it!

Thanks Diane, that would explain why it didn't move at all when I poked it :)

I'll try searcing online for woolly cocoons instead
