Rather like annexa, isn't it ?

somewhat similar to H. annexa
but I note four differences in the pattern (plus the range) which seem to separate it from H. annexa...

It's certainly not like Gordon's figure of annexa
but closer to this one labelled as such from CA

Given variation in this group one would assume that these are all integrading patterns. But the known range of annexa certainly is way out.
