doesn't look remotely like one :-]
but, seriously, in D. pronotum is never multicolor w/sharp edges. this kind of pronotum reminds of Beosus--Raglius--Rhyparochromus kinda types, Beosus being my fav.candidate in this case

Eremocoris
Thanks for pointing out my ID error. Your candidates for genera don't occur in NA, except for a few immigrant species not in my area. However, I reexamined the specimens and I am fairly sure they are dark examples of Eremocoris.
