Whats the difference between D. vittata and D. grandis?

I had a look at a picture of D. vittata and D. grandis, and it's very hard to tell them apart. I did however notice that D. grandis had lighter mandibles than D. vittata and also that D. grandis had a lighter bottom than D. vittata. Either that or one of the identifications was a mistake.

Width along with location suggest that this is D. vittata not D. grandis.
