Thanks!
Five years in the field, and I've never seen these before. A week in the field, and I've found two. Neat critters.

I'd like to see this beautiful mirid someday.

It is really very pretty.
I hope to see more and will attempt to introduce you if you're ever over this way. My friend Peter Bryant has also seen these quite close to this location.
