Sorry I never got back to you. There is some variation with the coloration that probably is determined by age. Here are some that look very much like yours: http://bugguide.net/node/view/276004/bgimage http://bugguide.net/node/view/54744/bgimage http://bugguide.net/node/view/128706/bgimage Which white patches did you mean?

Thanks. The white patches are missing here. Is that because it's of a certain age or gender?
