Default Re: Trying to identify this bug

From the looks of things, they look like aphids. Scale insects are flat, hard shelled and are brown or gray in color. Just wash them off with a good spray of water. Scales are usually found undernearth leaves and along stems. Since these are on top of the leaf I am more inclined toward aphids.
