    That's a clear dark band! Does it help in identification? My guess would be no :) Posted 4 years ago

      I thought so as well, but can't find a match. It seems so distinct. I'm going to share it on BugGuide and hope someone will know the ID. Posted 4 years ago

      I already got an ID. It's the same species that I saw here:
