Put to good use
I had taken photos of several individuals from a single colony and retained the specimens. I recently needed to connect the photo of a subject with the retained specimen, but I had not recorded this information. Tedious examination will often allow the association to be established, but in this case it was simple as only one of the specimens had the double crossvein.
