Mirid bug on cow skull - Labops

Mirid bug on cow skull - Labops
6 miles NW Lyons, Boulder County, Colorado, USA
May 18, 2007
Size: small
This is the only bug we saw on the cow skull, although several other scavenger groups were there. This bug with white margin has extremely widespread bug eyes. It is similar to Hadronema, but the eyes seem more widespread and maybe there is less of a "neck?" Any help is much appreciated.

Labops sp
Thanks so much for this ID, WonGun Kim. I really appreciate it. When I was checking out other Labops on BugGuide, I came across your great image of L. hesperius taken at Banff, #486116. It is very similar to my image. When I go to the entomology collection at the Univ. of CO, I'll see if they have this bug.
