In most parts the yellow markings appeared in August. In various books I own there are comparable pics from several units and given the dates supplied by the authors it's usually "August 1940" which shows the application of yellow ID markings. Apparently JG 26 and JG 54 were the forerunners here, both using the wingtips and the top of the rudder to apply some distinctive markings.
