This Psocid was found in October 2007 in the branches of Tamarix parviflora in Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain, 200 meters, continental-mediterranean climate. In urban garden, and sizes about 2 mm long. What species can be?   Thanks |

Anybody knows it?  Yesterday I found one that I suppose is the same species (same wing marks). It's a better pcture and maybe is helpfuk for identify it. (I've found this new one under bark of Platanus x hispanica in degradated river forest)  |

The lower picture is Psococerastis gibbosa, I think. Not sure about the upper ones, though. You could try contacting Bob Saville, organiser of the British barkfly recording scheme - he might be able to suggest a name (particularly if you send him some specimens). Contact details are on the website - http://www.brc.ac...mepage.htm Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Google Images. Antennae of P. gibbosa are much larger and the wings looks like some different... and the head and the eyer are also different. |

Psocoptera do suffer from broken antennae - I think this is why your specimen appears to have shorter antennae. There can also be a bit of variation in the wing venation and markings, but in general I think your specimen is fairly typical.

But thw two antennae looks to have the same lenghts and do't looks broken... maybe this is variability. Well, P. gibbosa then. Thanks again! |
