Looks close
I just wish we had a reference for the other three US species before we go to the Domincan Republic, but it is Florida so anything is possible.

Here are some images and clues of three species of Mormidea...
Mormidea cubrosa
"It can be recognized by the coloration of the abdominal venter which tends to be all or mostly darkened, that is without a distinct, dark mesial stripe..." "DISTRIBUTION: ... Southern United States (Texas to California)..." (

Mormidea pictiventris(#11)
A
paper
considered
Mormidea albisignis
as Mormidea pama.
So, I'd like to vote for Mormidea pama.

# 12
I don't know how old this list is, because it does not list M. lugens on here, but I believe #12 is a match.
This site is Absolutely wonderfull, great for any insect I.D. person!!! I completely forgot I had the link!!!!

The page says Centr. America?
The page says Centr. America? But yeah the pointy edgeds are differant. so most likely that is not a match either.... :(

Yes, you are coreect and yes
Yes, you are coreect and yes I agree with the other pictures remarks. The markings are distinctly differant, which is why I believe it is a differant species than the ones already posted to the guide. Still what species though??? I have some Emails to a few Ent. at the University in Gainesville FL. I might send it to them....if no one else knows.
