      1. Coming back to this ID, it looks to be incorrect:
        https://leps.fieldguide.ai/figures?category=59b7e2a42110df36d05f077b

        Note the "identification" heading, which describes the abdomen having a distinct dorsal median line, which is lacking in this photo. That means this is probably amadis.
