Imago. Han. I first took this one for a Yellow-spotted, thinking it looked big and powerful. But measurements indicate that they are not that different in size why you can't always use that a criteria for separation.

Imago. Hun. An old andromorph female as I see it. The slender body and the black inner half of the costa being black also supports the species.
Happy Birding
