Theo, please, why not arpadi? Palpi seem to bee darker and slender...
Thanks for explanation

Yes, I noticed that.
But arpadi has ‘always’. clear bright yellow hind margins to tergites, the lateral spots are lighter and typically truncated at hind margin of third tergite.

I guess the palpus looks slneder, but that actually the base is swollen. Maybe Rosevinge can check. If it is really slender, then we should reconsider.

Sorry, but I don't think I have any more pictures showing the palps any better…
