hybrid argia

Question as to what species this is, Argia sp. Qualities of Blue-ringed Dancer, Argia sedula, the shape and placemant of rings on abdomen; the purple/violet color quality of Variable Dancer, Argia fumipennis; eyes violet like Dusky Dancer, A. translata; and thorax like Blue-tipped Dancer, A. tibialis with the dark purlpe shoulder stripe ....! It may be a hybrid but I guess only DNA sampling would tell for sure.
