Neoitamus socius(female) is the correct name? Thank you very much. Slovak Republik, Terchová region on the Malá Fatra, approximately 700 m above sea level 14.07.2011. Edited by Mucha Fero on 20-07-2011 02:36 |

Because of the very dark metatarsi, i think this is N. cyanurus.

Sorry, but I don't agree. There is no possibility to separate the two species by checking the colour of the tarsi. According to Speight (1988) the only constant character are the microtrichia on wings. Please have a look on http://www.robber...mus.html#5. If you haven't the specimen for further studies, I prefer Neoitamus species. |

Thats very informative. I had written "I think" and that was meant to make clear that i wasn't sure.
