Difficult to see, but there is an ad (see below). And G. maculata has more extended orange markings on abdomen.

Yes Nikita, a bit like me...and worn round the edges Frown.

Altered heading to suit you purists....I prefer picta, coming from the Land of the Picts.

Your sense of humour and your ability to resist at a 3.5 m fall proves that you are still among the youngest of us Roger. Smile

Yes Stephane...18 years old in a 58 years young body with the sense of humour of a schoolkid...the only way to be...no sense of humour, no point in beng alive.
