Allograpta obliqua.
The only one of the four species that fits. (We now have the Florida maverick Allograpta IDed elsewhere, and it's quite different than this one.)

Pity!
I see a few good reasons for keeping this image a little longer:
It is a very nice one; it is taken in December (guess that this is not surprising for Florida, but interesting nonetheless) and there are 4 species of Allograpta, what if it turns out to be a different species?

Cleaning.
Just trying to clean out some unnecessary, and honestly a little embarrassing images.
