I think some kind of caterpillar? It looks to be upon a leaf, and the caterpillar comes in many fascinating forms.

I think it’s an aphid. They take sap from my crepe Myrtle and crap out sticky black tar on my car and driveway.

They suuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Not an aphid its a scale insect. Looks like mold from a distance.
