Atractia marginata, female. Design on scutum (with median pair of bold, black, longitudinal stripes against a bronze background), together with bright, gold-colored scutellum, help identify this common Central American Atractia. (Note - some authors merge majority of species of Atractia into related genus Hybozelodes.)
