It could certainly be varibaility in wing colouration, but I am not sure. I have only seen few museum specimens of this species so far. I think it would be interesting to look at all three Leptomydas species in detail (corsicanus, lusitanicus, sardous) as they are said to co-exist on Corsica, but only a single species is on Sardinia. Now that more specimens are being photographed and collected one could start such a project.
