I added a high res photo
a rather rough stacked shot, my stand doesn't have a fine focus. Provided I'm understanding the terminology correctly sayi look good. Oblong slits on floors of elytral punctures, larger than 2mm, eyes appear to be 13 or fewer facets wide if I'm counting correctly. Facets should be countable in the hi res photo.
