Hello,

I collected this male on June 26th in the Hautes-Alpes (France), at an altitude of 1,200 meters.
The ocelli (with two bands) are clearly separated, and the palps appear small and pointed.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi Jasuer,
Please try to improve your light.
Start by using a white paper brackground screen or even better, use a paper box.

Thanks Theo, I'll do some more testing.
