You are correct

This is a very interesting finding. As far as I know, this tingid has not yet been reported from any State in the West. The insect has been spreading throughout the eastern US since it first appeared in this Country but this is new to me. It is also interesting that the coloration of the veins is much darker than the ones I generally see around here. I'd like to see some specimens and study them.
