Hi Jörg, the
? means, that I cannot count the dorsocentrals to be 100% sure about
N. pallida, which should have 7 dc.
The other candidates (
quadrifasciata and
erichsoni) differ in the abdominal dorsal pattern - this is not clearly visible.
For me it is
N. pallida, but I haven't seen enough variants of these to define precisely.
