Condor Storch markings

Can anyone help shed some light on what is painted over the roundel on this Storch, the roundels were mostly black but this one evidently isn’t but I don’t have sufficient details on it for some artwork.

Interesting photo, that second one; that’s a Heinkel He 112.

Lovely detail it’s perfect, and for my next question… what colour is it most likely to be, white?

“Se pintó el yugo y las flechas (coloquialmente conocido como cangrejo) en color blanco sobre los círculos negros del fuselaje.”
(They painted the yoke and arrows (colloquially known as crab) in white on black circles of the fuselage.)

A rendering of the same on a Bf109.
Looks like it’s white.
It consists of the Nationalist “Yoke and Arrows” motif.
