What is this? I found it under a bed sheet. I live In Mojave county, AZ, USA, in the middle of the desert. It was probably 1/8 inch long. And narrow.

Initial guess based on mouthparts, coloration and small size:

Neuropteran larva. Possibly a green lacewing (family Chrysopidae).

According to here, green lacewings are found in Arizona deserts.
