I think this is a Leopoldius species but not sure which species exactly. I have browsed through the net and I cannot find anything similar. All photos below are from the same specimen taken about a week ago in the Rhone Valley in France - calcareous grassland. Can anyone recognise which species it is ? Thank you.

I am unable to attach a photo, I have reduced the size to 72dpi and 600 pixels, have followed all the instructions... I am not sure what I am doing wrong.

Maybe there are spaces in your filenames?
