Species found 30.10.17 in Freiburg (Elbe), Germany. Found on sunny stairs, close to some sheep on an embankment. Any comment appreciated. Mtfyfe attached the following image: [155.07Kb] Edited by Mtfyfe on 03-01-2018 22:06 |

Thanks Niels-Jan, female is obvious. Any explanation for the Polietes versus Helina. Just to learn the difference. And if Polietes any clue for the subspecies or is a photo not enough? Cheers, Lars |

In Polietes the dm-Cu crossvein is very slanted, almost parallel to the posterior wing margin. Also, in Polietes there are strong presutural acr. and a strong pd in distal third of hind tibia (as in Phaonia). On you picture, only the first clue is visible.
