Oecleus
The head, narrowest between the eyes at the back of the head, differentiates this genus from Oeclidius. Unfortunately, although this species is unusually short and bright yellow, one can't tell from the literature which it might be. Lois O'Brien thinks perhaps O. fulvidorsum, but you would need to examine a male to be sure.

Whatever species it is, it's the same as the one on bugguide.net/node/view/190771#264188 collected on the same host.
