BG1285 C2661 - Prepops rubrovittatus
Gloster, Gloster Arboretum, Amite County, Mississippi, USA

Size: body length 4.3 mm.
We think this may be in the family_Miridae, possibly in the genus_Prepops. It is somewhat similiar to this photo.
Proper placement would be appreciated.

P. rubrovittatus...
I believe based on short A1, red head, median red stripe on the pronotum, and halfly-red femora. ^^
