Prater, Vienna, in early May. I was thinking Xanthostigma or Puncha

Hi Lorin, a complicated case: it seems, that P. ratzeburgi has a great variability in the wing veins (https://en.wikipe...ratzeburgi). But here:
https://www.resea.../308201061, on page 68,
you will find a male from Austria which has in my opinion the same venation as yours.

Greetings, Eric

Hi Eric, coming back to this observation, as I have received an answer from Ulrike Aspök in the meantime: She identified it as X. xanthogramma, but did not specify the reason (I had preferred Puncha...)
