Updated images
I updated the two images with reprocessed ones just now.
(The old photos were of quite poor quality. I was still learning both raw image processing in mid 2013, and it showed. The new images show the same moth from the same raw image files, just processed better.)

I still have your old images. The new images are much better. Thanks!
Not sure if you saw the email I sent. It did not include my personal observations which lead to the my questioning images like yours. From what I could tell
A. argentilimitana
can have the dark bands edged with reflective gold like
C. ringsi
. However,
ringsi
appears to lack such a well defined forked subterminal band and the am. band fades basally with ground color at the base. You can see examples similar to yours at BOLD in
BOLD:AAB7231
, which is the BIN for
A. argentilimitana
.

Not sure BAMONA has it right. Who identified it?

I’m guessing that the identification of your image was based on misidentified
Aethes argentilimitana
at MPG. I'll email you more information.
