Hi Yvan, how are you? It was a long time ago... I think you are right. I checked my collection, and pulchellus always has a pale spot behind eyes, which may lack in triangulum. I was disturbed by the pale yellow body color, but both species are somewhat variable. So it is most probable triangulum Regards, Christian |

Hi Christian! I'm fine, thank you! I agree with you, it's difficult to give a name without having the specimen best regards, yvan |
