Momar
is this wing from the same individual as the other live pics?

Yes, it is
It looks different than the photos of the live insect because those were shot using a hand-held camera, while this image is the result of focus-stacking five photos. Also, before shooting it, I had to "flatten" the wing by placing a microscope slide on top of it.
The last ventral image in this series looks different than the rest as well because it is focus-stacked.
