The 3rd antennal segment should be longer than 1st and 2nd for lessonae - can you check this on your original photo?

Hello Eric,
thanks for your answer.
If I understand right, it's Chr. lessonae. Or?

Hello Bernd, in addition to the dark edges of the wings, pattern of scutellum and abdomen:
C. lessonae is correct for me.
