Obvious mirrors on P9 and P10. Secondaries without dark markings in centres, but adult-like. No black in tail-feathers. Adult-like pattern of central primaries. Several primary coverts with limited black markings. Probably in 5cy, but extent of remaing immature features still not fully understood in armenicus.
