The first observations of near-specularly reflected He(2+) upstream from high Mach number quasi-parallel shocks are presented. The He(2+) observations are compared with simultaneous suprathermal proton observations to determine the density ratio of specularly reflected He(2+) to protons. The presence of specularly reflected He(2+) at high Mach number quasi-parallel shocks suggests that it may be a seed population for diffuse He(2+) seen in the same region.
