Acanthocephala terminalis, known as clown lice or stink bugs or leaf-footed lice, lives on leaf branches.

Acanthocephala terminalis are typically about 18-25 mm long, with a dark gray to black color. The fourth (and final) segment of their antennae is orange, and the tibiae of their hind legs appear flat like leaves.
