1000m high, Tafraoute zone, in a sunny mountain with streams and Euphorbia. As far as I remember, less than 1cm., iīve never seen two coloured spotted wings like that. It was continuously walking and moving the wings, I was not able to make a better pic, sorry.

Yes yes, it is a Plesina indeed. Including it's typical behaviour. Start collecting and I'll tell you more. Theo |
