Moved
Moved from Stink Bugs.

The key requires examination of male genitalia, but based on distribution info from (1), it should be americana.

Missed this before
Thanks for the move and confirmation! I'd assumed Z. americana, but just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Of course it being a female makes things more complicated unfortunately.
