Although there are 10 others on database without specimens, this is the only confirmed specimen with a VC41 prefix.

Also the postmedian line (third cross-bar) tends to be darker in Lesser too. As DJS stated LT-b is as yet unproven in VC41.DRWGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636173970831048193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553355011221187801.post-87551880164165808942013-09-23T14:19:41.534+01:002013-09-23T14:19:41.534+01:00I agree with Dave this looks more like Treble-bar....I agree with Dave this looks more like Treble-bar.
