Is this a male Polietes lardarius? Seen today in a woodland in Sussex, UK. I've never knowingly seen one of these before, so I hope I've got the genus right at least. Many thanks, Dylan evdebs attached the following image:  [193.18Kb] Edited by evdebs on 25-05-2021 13:12 |

Hi Dylan, the image is a bit dark and I only found a female until now, but it seems you are right and it's a male Polietes lardarius. (colour, pattern, eyes hairy, vein m not deflected)
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner |
