Post 5.

Celaerrhinus aurivittatus This has a more regular band with a shallow excavation in space 1b.

In C. dhanada the band is irregularly notched on the outer margin; strongly excavated in space 1b on the inner margin.
The band extend further down to vein 1b especially in the male & always so on the underside in both sexes.

Greetings from India!!!!

Dear Antonio Giudici,
In your A. puspa gisca, having no basal spot in vein 7 or space 7. In our Indian subcontinent, having black basal spot in vein 7 or space 7. What will be probable reason for this kind of difference. Is it happened only for subspecies gisca?

The Post 5 shot has been overlooked.
IT is actually Lestranicus transpectus.
The HW have a large dark spot 7, a smaller spot 6 below it, a small spot at the base of space 1b, & the submarginal lunules joined into a zigzag line.
