Sardinia, Sep 2010. Dryish river bed V Large, wing span just over 40mm! Wings mostly clear so not an obvious Anthrax sp. Anthrax/ Spongostylum? Steve |

There are no median white scales -its just the flash bouncing back. The sublateral ones are real. |

many thanks for super fast answer I see the other threads on this sp. now. Its certainly very striking. Greathead and Evenhuis 's key in Con Man Pal Dip sent me on the wrong track by stating "wing completely infuscated, yellow or greyish" |
