For dorsalis the measurement gives: gap width 1.14 of mean eye width. Or in words: gap at the height of the ocell a bit wider than eye width.
Note by the way that the eye has no fluent contour, it is a bit pointed (lower picture). It seems most dorsalis females have this and hungarica hardly so.

Now look at my upper picture, closer to 0.75 or to 1.14? The gap is clearly much narrower than eye width, notwithstanding all perspectivical distortion.
