Reconsidering my aberration theory. I now think she has a chip in the hindwing and we are seeing the white spot of the dorsal side of the right hindwing.

A nice aberrant female. You have seen her partner here;

One terminal spot on the hindwing is missing its yellow pigment and would be considered a rare aberration. Here is another aberration
