Hello,
My rosebushes have been healthy until today I noticed many of the flowers in bad shape, and there happened to be 3 or 4 of these green bugs on them - could anyone tell me what these bugs are and if they are the likely cause? Thanks!
Sorry, can't see the photo(s). Please have a look at the tips for new members re. posting photos; then I'm sure there will be help for you!

Although the photos are from different angles, could it be the beneficial Aphidoletes aphidimyza?

Unfortunately I don't think it's that! This didn't appear to have wings. here's a close up of it:
