Would it be possible to identify these Pangonius photographed near Timahdite, Middle Atlas, Morocco on 31 May 2022. Altitude 1900 meters.
The photos show at least 1 male and 1 female, but there may have been more individuals.
Thank you in advance!

Thank you, Theo!

There is no such. thing as too much information..

It keys out to P. alluaudi, a Maroccan endemic.

Never seen it before, so ID is tentative (but seems logical).

Great, thank you for your effort and the id! And very nice that it could actually be keyed out (provisionally) on the basis of photos.
