I feel that most specimens that appear on the market and reffering as this subspecies are regular lentiginosa.
I have to admit that i only knew its existence few time ago and i have made my investigation.
It has a bluish background; small dark blotch on apex and two small at anterior tips and the three bands are more distinctive.
All lentiginosa have a well defined range and the form buharensis are only found in southern India.
I am telling this because i have seen on auction specimens sold as buharensis from Pakistan, but the problem is that they are not supposed to exist there.
Kind regards
