The upper set of images should be it.
I don't see much difference at bottom set, but the body size is much less !

The easiest difference that I personally notice is the first antennomere. If you take care the upper one has a thinner and apparently longer 1st ant., while the second has a more fat, enlarged, less regular shape and is shorter. This, for me, means that the first belongs to "italica" group (maybe nowadays the name has changed), while the second to "pluvialis" group.

So, pluvialis group is in the lower half of the photo-set
