The wing pattern recalls P. littoralis, but I cannot see the silvery patches on the mid tibia, so I wonder if there are any better species suggestions. Thanks in advance, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [218.09Kb] Edited by Sundew on 17-11-2023 19:13 |

P. cf. quadripunctata is fine (until Cranefly complains  ). Thank you so much! |
