What do you think of Dysphania Militaris? Dysphania sagana does not seem to have any horizontal black stripes on the abdoment in the reference photos I found. Posted 8 years ago

  Indeed, the other one is more likely Dysphania sagana.
  
  I am hesitating about this one though, there are other similar species and I am not sure which one it is.

  Thanks, Ferdy for pointing out, and yes this one looks more like Dysphania militaris. Will update it.
