from Dr. Sweet:
"probably
Trapezonotus
, but I am unfamiliar with such a dark species, like
Atrazonotus
. Have do more work on it!"

more from Dr. Sweet:
"very unusual; I am unfamiliar with this species. It could be a
Delochilocoris
, not a
Trapezonotus
, but I need to see the actual specimen. Would not surprise me if it is a new species."
Tim, how about sending it to the man? along with other funny stuff of yours...
