hi,

i just look thru the gallery and remain at T.fera but this more darker than the exemplary from the gallery.
i have readed some of the post that describe the diference between fera and magnicornis but i think that is to much for me.

maybe some more oppinion?

thanks,
cosmln

Both are very variable.
This is fera: narrow vertex, reddish tarsi.

No doubt

Great pic !
