It looks just like Ardozyga stratifera except that it has a black head. Hmmm...

There are at least 3 on the ALA with a black head. Also about 4 on Bold Systems with apparently a black head..

A. catarrhacta, A stratiferea and A. mesochra are all similar looking. One of the A; catarrhacta specimens we have claissified as such has a black head. We have also created the category: 'Á. mesochra and similar species'. Arguably all these these should be merged together if we cannor readilay tell them apart.
