Moved per T.J. Henry's offline communication
he's asking for voucher specimens to document these very important northern records: the bug hasn't been recorded outside Florida.
"Maybe this person will be able to return to where he photographed them. They should be on Juniperus virginiana!"

Moved from black-n-white thing from New England.

with that distinctive pattern, looks kinda like an emaciated Chinaola quercicola(1), which doesn't belong in Mass., but who knows
