Still found another one on the same flower Tanacetum vulgare, but on another date (19th September). It also has no broken orange band on the top of its abdomen, but some very faint suggestion of that. But the white bands on this one look a little more pronounced and I think its feet are black and the face has no black stripe, and it does have hairy legs, so that one must really be a female E.arbustorum.
