Could be, but...
from the yellowish nearctic Bourletiella sensu lato, Deuterosminthurus nonfasciatus is easily recognised by the large number of subsegmentations of the 4th antennal segments: 12 to 15. Although this subsegmentation cannot be seen in this picture, the 4th antennal segment is quite long, suggesting at least there are many subsegments. See also the recently uploaded pictures of Claude Pilon.
