Unexpected colors with solarized dark theme on emacs (blue background)

Question

I have set my iterm2 to use the solarized color theme:

I would also like to have emacs use this theme. Here's what it looks like:

I have my terminal set to xterm-256color. I don't know what I've missed, but it makes me sad.

Help appreciated.

Answer 1

I switched to the latter and it fixed the issue.
