Not a ladybug larvae, lacewing larvae. I don’t know how to distinguish Chrysopidae from Hemerobiidae but it’s one of those two.

I pulled this damaged leaf off of my sweet potato plant and saw the little thing start crawling around. Did not appear winged. I spent a full hour on BugFinder and still couldn’t figure this one out. Help please!

Also, any idea what the webbing could be? I don’t think it’s spider mites cause there’s some on the wood in the top of my balcony.

Looks like an aphid wolf but I could be wrong. If it is they are Ladybug larvae and eat aphids

Thank you, I believe this is it! Lacewing larvae
