Dear Christian

Why not P. triangulum?

best regards

Hi Yvan,

how are you? It was a long time ago...

I think you are right. I checked my collection, and pulchellus always has a pale spot behind eyes, which may lack in triangulum. I was disturbed by the pale yellow body color, but both species are somewhat variable. So it is most probable triangulum

Regards, Christian

Hi Christian!

I'm fine, thank you!
I agree with you, it's difficult to give a name without having the specimen

best regards, yvan
