Roger, your list seems very old. Cyrtoneura picta Zetterstedt = G.picta, valid name G.minor Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

And G. maculata has more extended orange markings on abdomen. Stephane Lebrun attached the following image:  [24.31Kb] Stephane. |

Your sense of humour and your ability to resist at a 3.5 m fall proves that you are still among the youngest of us Roger.
