There is an entry in Bug Files with no pics, but I think the spelling is incorrect with the 'h' being in the wrong place.

The only difference I can see is the third yellow band from the bottom, mine has a longer narrow strip joining the two curved sections than pics I have seen. As the David Element site mentions there are many similar species I thought it best to see if anyone could tell me otherwise.

Thanks for any help!
