Apiomerus longispinis

Can someone ID to species? Triatoma gerstaedkeri or T. rubida? The color of the margin's marks are true (white).

Apiomerus longispinis

Somewhat shiny with typical discrete white connexival markings. Pronotum appears unicolorous but difficult to see in the shade.

Moved from Apiomerus.

Apiomerus longispinis?

I'm not an expert, but I think looks closer than Tiatoma...

I agree.

I agree with Yurika's ID.
