Pic from a friend. Our thought is Pale Prominent but obviously significantly darker than I have seen before. Any other ideas?

Speaking as someone who spent four hours trying to identify his first one a couple of summers ago: yes, it's a Pale Prominent. And yes, I'd say it's a bit darker than the norm. Bizarre-looking creatures.
