Bug - Apoecilus

Bug - Apoecilus
Elachee Nature Center, Gainesville, Hall County, Georgia, USA

Moved
Moved from Apateticus.

Moved
Moved from Podisus.

How do we tell this from Apateticus?
Here for example

Podisus maculiventris nymph?
Ran across this image while looking at the TAMU site on Texas insects:

Spined soldier bug, Podisus maculiventris (nymph and adult on that page)

The adult is illustrated in Slater, How to Know the True Bugs (Wm. C. Brown, 1978, figure 61, page 46). He says this is a widespread species. Several others in genus.
