Mediterranean scrub. South central spain. may 2022. 600 m. I think it's Estheria, but the only species with such an elongated prementum lives in Canary Islands (as far as I know), so I'm probably wrong... |

Yes, our posts crossed. It is indeed the well known Estheria with long proboscis from the Canary Isles: simonyi. Theo |

Wow, but the photos are from the center of iberian peninsula. That's the origin of my doubt about the specific determination. |

I am sorry, I thought it was from the Canary Isles.. From Spain, it is Rhamphina cf. pedemontana. Theo |

Oh! It's a new genus to me! I had never seen it. There are two species in iberian península, Do you know if exist some key character, besides the flexibility of proboscis, that separates two species? Thank you a lot!!! |
