Mine is not as intensely colored as the one in the picture, but they do
share the three spots on the peduncle with the middle one being heavier. I
have a feeling that mine is also female. At the very least, I think your
picture is one of the Eth. squamiceps complex in the subgenus Catonotus.
I'll wait 'til March and find a male in breeding colors, then we'll know for
sure!
