Among the many Eurithia connivens I have found this year, this one had broader frons and different genitalia.
Could this be E. caesia?

Great. Funny that anthophila is 100 x more common than connivens in NL, and with you it is sort of vice versa. Maybe connivens is more boreal and retreating due to climate change ?

Yeah, connivens is probably more boreal. I guess it all depends on what the hosts prefer Grin
