AC Deniau GCI/3 16 or 17 October 1943

In a recent issue of Avions Koss is described as a victim of AC Deniau, flying a Spitfire of GCI/3 on 17 October 1943 however he is listed in the Kracker database as lost due to bad weather on 16 October 1943.

The Decot brothers confirm Deniau shot down a Bf109 near Ajaccio on 17 October 1943, however Porret/Thevenet date the victory on 16 October 1943. Which is correct?

Apologies Deniau was with GCII/7 at the time. Ciedegloire lists his victory as on 17 October 1943.
