from 29 different locations, and even though there was some variation in the number of foretibial anteroventral spines, which ranges from 9 to 11, the number of posteroventral spines was consistently seven across specimen. It has also been found that individual anatomical variations are frequently found on only one side of the specimen, very rarely existing the same variation on both sides within the same specimen. In fact, it seems to be the case for the alternative hindwing vein CuA1 branching patterns found in the
