Homalocoris sp.
Same issue as with other set. This is erythrogaster by my table, based on size (too "large" to be minutus) and posterior pronotal lobe marking (oblong, not spot-like as described in guttatus). The legs are irregular black-red, which is sort of characteristic for erythrogaster. Personally, I think someone needs to take a look at all three types and synonymize to minutus!
