Hi Alison, I think this is probably a major of C. aeneopilosus, unless it had obviously reddish legs? They look pretty black in the photo, but it's always a bit hard to be sure. Cheers, Jon

Thanks for the distinction Jon. I was going by the fact that the abdomen didn't seem to have horizontal stripes. Yes, I think the legs were black.
