Note added 8 April 2003: Re-identified as Risbecia pulchella. See message.

Dear Erwin,
Thanks for the rapid response. I am pretty sure that your photos are of Risbecia ghardaqana which is endemic to the Red Sea. I will put up some photos of Risbecia pulchella, from East Africa as soon as I can. It has much smaller spots.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
