I like Polymixis (Polymixis) rufocincta which has been previously recorded on the island. Thanks Paul.

This is a possibility ----Polymixis xanthomista --( Black banded ) or Polymixis (Polymixis) rufocincta a close relative ,with no common name.

It is certainly the same family Hema but not, I think, the same species.
