Hi SD, Many thanks for the good and detailed feedback. Seems like D. Anthracinus is most likely. None of my images show an obviously clear central area in the wings, but these island populations may not have that, or variability explains the lack, Over to you to judge dusted the subcallus needs to be to confirm the ID, and here are a couple more shots showing the front of the head clearly in case they help.
