No. The male is
caesar, and I think the female probably is too (otherwise
illustris).

Thank Susan
Which are the discriminating criteria for L. caesar, because it is normally common.

It's a difference in the arrangement of the marginal bristles on T6, and the profile of that tergite. Very difficult to photograph successfully. There are other slight differences in the width of the frons and length of the third antennal segment, but they are so subtle and need the perfect angle, so again, almost impossible from photographs.
