i checked BCA right away, couldn't decide

Henry, T.J., & J. Brambila. 2003. First report of the neotropical damsel bug Alloeorhynchus trimacula (Stein) in the United States, with new records for two other nabid species in Florida (Heteroptera: Nabidae: Prostemmatinae). Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington. 105: 801-808.

 
yours is not trimacula, i'm sure; has to be the other one
