Thank You! I'm trying to rear it, we'll se if it's another species. |

My reason for suggesting Pachygaster atra is that only Pachygaster s.s. has such broad, flattened bristles. I don't think P.kerteszi has been confirmed as a Hungarian species yet, even if the data-less types were found in Budapest museum, so I'm backing P.atra. Hopefully Walter will have success rearing it, and we will discover whether I'm right!
