Moved from Bolteria.

The key, the description, and the illustration of Kelton, 1972 (1) lead to this species. In addition, it is the only eastern species of Bolteria.

Please compare with the description given in (1):

"Male. Length 4.20 mm; width 1.61 mm. Head: width 1.19 mm, vertex 0.56 mm; generally pale brown; frons, clypeus and spot near each eye next to carina darker brown; jugum and lorum somewhat reddish. Antennae (in mm): I, 0.40, yellowish brown; II, 1.75, yellowish brown, apex slightly darker; III, 0.77, brown; IV, 0.63, brown. Rosturm: 1.89 mm long, extending beyond hind coxa. Pronotum: 1.33 mm wide at base; brown; collar and calli dark brown, area behind callus often dark; shallowly punctate; pubescence short, yellowish. Mesoscutum: brown. Scutellum: almost white, often with trace of reddish at middle of base. Hemelytron: clavus brownish, median area darker brown; embolium and corium mostly brown, triangular area on corium dark brown, claval suture and adjacent area to it pale with many reddish dots; cuneus opaque white with several reddish dots, outer margin reddish brown, apical half dark brown to black; wing membrane uniformly fuscous, veins reddish; pubescence yellowish, moderately long and dense. Ventral surface: sternum, pleura, and abdomen brown; epimeron pale; genital segment lighter brown. Legs: coxae pale, femora light brown; tibiae pale; tarsi brown.
Female. Length 4.48 mm; width 1.75 mm. Head: width 1.29 mm, vertex 0.64 mm. Antennae (in mm): I, 0.43; II, 1.40; III, 0.84; IV, 0.63. Rosturm: 2.10 mm long. Pronotum: 1.40 mm wide. Much like male in appearance but slightly lighter in colour."

Moved from Plant Bugs.

I corrected the length from 5.5 mm to 4.5 mm based on counting the stitches. 1 stitch=.357 mm vertically and 1 stitch=.227 mm horizontally. Most dimensions match well with the description given by Knight with one potentially important exception. Antenna segment II is 1.5 mm where as Knight places it at 1.9 mm. The second image, I posted makes it easier to figure out the dimensions.

I am disregarding the dimension given for the male head width, .36 mm, as I think it is a typo. It would have to be more like 1.36 mm to match the illustration and the female is listed as 1.46 mm.
