Hello, the attached single picture was photographed in Bulgaria, Nature Park Zlatni Piassatzi, near Black Sea coast in the beginning of September 2008. I stored it together with the M. equestris, but legs and eyes look in my opinion different. Could it be a Merodon aeneus? Is species ID possible? Thank you, Marion |

Hi Marion I am now with Ante Vujic , specialist on Merodon taxonomy. He identify the species as Merodon ambiguus Bardescu 1986. It is not 100% secure because more details of abdomen are necessary. If you conserve the specimen could send another photo of the abdomen and legs. |

Hi Santos, many thanks to you and Ante Vujic for ID. I will store the image as Merodon cf. ambiguus. Unfortunately I cannot provide further pictures because it was not collected and photographed from a long distance. It is the only picture and also full resolution. Best wishes, Marion |
