what about D1761? Perhaps you designated it as P. occitanica from the mine? I'd thought an adult emerged from that one, but I am probably mistaken.

Oh, you're right
That emerged around July 10 this year; I'm still back on June 19 in going through my photos. Stay tuned...

Mine differences
I've reared argentinotella from mines with similar placement to this one, but it may be that occitanica doesn't make mines like that one...
