And since the observant amongst you will have noticed that the previous photo was missing an appendage, I will show you that separately. It fell off, so I thought I might as well take the opportunity to photograph it. I note that although the cross veins are shadowed, the vein itself does not have the distinctive ogee shape of the previous specimen. Is this something that is variable, or is this a different species?
