Looks more like something called a "leaf-footed bug".

They are considered true bugs in that they are born and require no
metamorphosis. In other words, they look like the adult, but can take on
a
nymph stage. By the shape, I believe it to be a stink bug of some sort.

I have these all over the place. What are they, and do they matter?

I also have the bugs that Victoria described that run around to the back
of the stem when you get close to them all over my perennial hibiscus
(and only on it). But they don't seem to cause any problems...
