    Dear Ali, I tried to identify the species on some of your photos, but it wasn't easy. This is definitely a better match, thanks for correcting it. I'm glad you know the species better. More than 2 years and 12000 photos later some of them are still new species, identified for the first time :) Please keep sharing and identifying them! They are very much appreciated.
