Environment Fonts and Colors (Where's the one I'm looking for?)

I have custom colors and fonts setup in Visual Studio and I'm now using those in the new VS2010. One new feature that I've noticed is that if you click on a variable, it highlights all instances of that variable in your current file.

With my color scheme (a dark background with light text) it makes the highlighted variable very unreadable. I've gone through and tried to figure out which setting under "Environment Fonts and Colors" controls the background color of the highlighting, but I'm not having any luck. Can someone point me in the right direction?

So, in one sentence:

What in the list of "Environment Fonts and Colors" controls the highlighting that happens when you click on a variable?

And in Pictures... alt text

+2  A: 

It's called Highlighted Reference

Tools > Options > Env > Fonts and Colors > Text Editor > Highlighted Reference
