Came across this individual today , it sports crescent markings and a more chequered border on the forewings than I have seen before, is it within normal variation or is a known form please ?

A Male from same site for comparison:
Many thanks in anticipation

It seems this may be an aberration called "parvipuncta" due to the crescent shaped discoidal spots on the wings, awaiting confirmation from BCHQ.
