A bembicini wasp, if someone can narrow it down further Id appreciate it.

Moved
Moved from Bembecinus.

Moved from Sand Wasps.

Moved for expert attention
Moved from ID Request.

The closest match I found to the dorsal pattern was Bembecinus...



...but it's not perfect. Also, we don't have many images in the Guide, and I have no idea whether or not they're found in FL.

 
Wasps
Thanks. I am currently cataloging wasps in my area I have over 60 different kinds photographed and a lot of them identified on my website with some help from Dr. James Wiley at the Florida Museum of Entomology. I know I have seen at least 3 or 4 bembix wasps down here, I am trying to back track and find the different ones, Ill post them when I find them.
