I can't seem to figure out where to place this bug.
Resting on a grass blade at a very difficult angle, so this was the best image I could get of it.

Overall habitus (based on specimen examination) matches guide images well. Marshall(1) notes this species as being widespread.

Thanks!
That's a new family for me.

Cymidae?
I would lay odds that it is in that family. Certainly something related to the old version of Lygaeidae:-)

Agreed.
I would say Cymidae as well.
