I believe that this is a wasp of some type. However, it has fewer yellow bands than any of the wasps listed in my field guide. Can some one help identify what type of wasp this is?

Moved

Mason wasp.
This is a mason wasp, subfamily Eumeninae of the family Vespidae. Matthias Buck is our resident authority on this group, and may be able to give you a genus, or even species.

 
Thanks
Thank you very much for your help. This confirms what I thought.
