A big one (2.5 / 3 cm, head to butt)
Maybe someone can help me to find the 'exact' soecies.

Hello Frederic, this is a lovely spotting and series. Congratulations. I have removed this from the Rare Color Morph mission. Once we find out what genus and species it is we can determine if it is in fact a rare colour for the species. Thanks and happy spotting!!!
