The white band is evenly broad in A. martini, but indented at 1b in A. anthea, as in the photo. Also, there is a small white basal streak in A. a. pista (not A. a. anthea), seen in all pics I have, but not shown in any pic of A. martini.
The photo matches exactly the pics I have of Acerbas anthea pista.
