    We continue our study of the family S\mathcal{S} of Schwarz reflection maps with respect to a cardioid and a circle which was started in [LLMM1]. We prove that there is a natural combinatorial bijection between the geometrically finite maps of this family and those of the basilica limb of the Tricorn, which is the connectedness locus of quadratic anti-holomorphic polynomials. We also show that every geometrically finite map in S\mathcal{S} arises as a conformal mating of a unique geometrically finite quadratic anti-holomorphic polynomial and a reflection map arising from the ideal triangle group. We then follow up with a combinatorial mating description for the "periodically repelling" maps in S\mathcal{S}. Finally, we show that the locally connected topological model of the connectedness locus of S\mathcal{S} is naturally homeomorphic to such a model of the basilica limb of the Tricorn
