I would like to politely ask that you please remind yourself the distinguishing features of species before moving images around. Pselliopus cinctus has at least remnants of black on the anterior pronotal lobe and the posterior margin of the posterior pronotal lobe sinuate instead of straight as in here.

Sorry, I don't really think this was scolding and believe I was quite respectful. I only want others to be more careful when making identifications so that the identity of images on the guide are less confusing to users. I acknowledge V Belov's great contribution to this site and I thank them very much for it.
