thanks for cropping
rather than adding a cropped version it's advisable to simply replace the original pic like i did it here for you

cropping
Please make sure to crop tight any images posted for identification purposes, so that the bug fills the frame (it's 99% empty space here): keep in mind that regular users are unable to see images full-size, and those who might help will miss critical details_
