You might think about posting in the Insect ID forum--someone here may know what he is eventually, but I've seen people get much quicker responses there.
Sorry - looks like a Southern Green Stinkbug nymph to me...foe.

This insect has a sucking mouthpart - like a thin straw. Watch what it is eating. If it is stuck into the plant, it is sucking juices from the plant, and is therefore not desirable. You can do this with all insects to tell the good guys from the bad guys - just watch to see what it is eating.
