Yoyetta denisoni and Yoyetta timothyi are very close. Was the colour of the membrane under the fore wing red or orange? I think it may be red (=denisoni), but is always hard to tell when looking at a photo.

Yes it is red. My pics always look degraded when i post them on here, sharpness, colour etc. They look much better on my pc.
