      I think it looks incredibly close and could very well be a match. The doubts I have is regarding the horizontal stripes on the abdomen (very dark here) whilst in other photos they look light to silvery. Further, on Peter's photos the wing edges have this very clear, dark net-like pattern, which I see not at all or in different forms on other photos.
      
      I don't know if this is natural variability, differences between sexes, misidentifications of other photos. This genus is infamously hard! Posted 4 years ago

        Thank you both. I think I will go with it. I found images on iNat that seem to match including one of own (oops) Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago

        Sounds good. There seems to be some variability between individuals, but if it ends up being the wrong species, we can always change it. Posted 4 years ago
