Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: This is an important photo because the individual is the perfect “missing link” between Risbecia pulchella (which has many small orange spots and a darkly smudged background to the central area) and Risbecia ghardaqana (which has a few yellow spots and a milky white background to the central area).
