Diogmites
We are reviewing the Diogs and this is very unlikely to be missouriensis in VA. We are in fact trying to decide whether missouriensis even exists. More likely is that this is a salutans and we don't understand the extent of the thoracic variability in this species. Moving back to genus for now.
