I'm convinced it's 3207.2 Epiblema gibsoni

I found this one in Rich Healy's album that looks right.

Thanks!
That's the main one that I've been looking at but I don't have the confidence 
to call it so I'm hoping someone with more experience can give a hand. If 
that's it, MPG could use some shots of a living specimen and I just happen to 
know someone that can supply them. :-)

Ken,

I recommend taking a careful look at Hodges #3194.1. I flipped your first image 
upside down to match the pinned specimens and tried, imperfectly, to compare 
your image with the MPG one.
