thanks for pointing this out
many additional state records have been published in various papers since Henry's 1977 work (see here), as well as Canada country record(1); i'll ask the experts to update the page

followup: a note from Dr Henry
"In a 1978 paper, I listed D. unica from D.C. and Texas, but I don't know where the Texas record comes from--I also have collected it in that state. On the other hand, we did not record this species in our list of the Miridae of Kentucky(1)."

Thanks, v!
I just noticed one other thing. Under Habitat, it references "other Diphleps species" come to lights. I realize that the genus page says there's only one Diphleps species in North America, but to avoid confusion or ambiguity on the species page, it might be worth adding something like "(not in N. America)" after "other Diphleps species."
