A tricky picture because the lightfall seems to suggest a light coloured base of wings and a darker top 2/3 just like Pamponerus germanicus. However, the shape of the hypopygium is Antipalus as are the dusted tergites. Also the time suggests that because flightperiod of Pamponerus is may june, early july.

Hello Reinoud,

Thank you for your reaction!
I'm sorry I have no other picture.
So, we let it Antipalus varipes OK?!

Regards,
Hedy
