No, this is certainly not a female of either P. ustulata or P. andersoni. At the moment I have no key at hand, but I think this is Palloptera modesta (or Toxoneura modesta if you like). Jan Willem van Zuijlen |

Great, I had modesta with ? mark on this and two similar others  It's a new species for me and I really don't have a good key to separate them. ( I made the ID only by the wing marks) Thank You again.Jari |
