Great, I was struggling with the key a bit, so wanted to make sure the genus is correct.

I excluded cristata, as I counted 4 post-sut dc. The basicosta looks quite dark and the bent vein is not clouded, which would suggest petiolata, but the area around m-cu should not be browned, whereas it looks a bit clouded to me, so this was my main area of uncertainty
