Hi,
Today on Choisya ternata. 4,3 mm with wings ; Cuise-La-Motte (Northen France).
Is the genus correct ? Can the species be determined?
Many thanks for help.
Michel

With the actual specimen we might get there (provided the antennae are still present).

Please, be advised that as long as COVID-19 restrictions are still in place it may be complicated to receive parcels at our museum. Regular mail ( 'letters' ) arrives without problems but parcels are better sent to my home address (which I will not advertise here in the forum for all to see for obvious reasons).
