I would personally call the first increta, the second ovata and the third haesitata, but I'm pretty sure LaFontaine and Wagner would call the first ovata b/c of the brown reniform. I can't believe that two phenotypic traits (the non ovate shape of the basal area and the dark triangle at the anal angle) vary between species, while the third trait (brown reniform) doesn't.
