Notonecta? - Notonecta kirbyi

Notonecta? - Notonecta kirbyi
Sitka County, Alaska, USA
August 20, 2012
Looks kind of like Notonecta insulata, but that seems to be an east coast species. Assuming I even have the right genus, N. kirbyi looks like the more expected west coast species that is similar. Before the population where I photographed this one was recently found, this family was not reported from Alaska.
