Hello ! I need help to identify this insect : (Clic on the photo for a bigger size)  Chavernoz Marina : France : 15 July 2006 : Croutoy (60) Size : 8mm I found it in my kitchen. I live between fields and humid forest in the north of France. I think it is a Keroplatidae but I don't find lot of information about this family. Can you help me ? Thanks Marina |

Quick and dirty, for the moment: could be Cerotelion humeralis but these usually are somewhat bigger than 8 mm.

Ok, Paul. Thank you for your answer. I check the dimension of the orange mark behind my specimen and you are right ! I find about 11mm for the specimen. On "Le monde des insectes" forum Littlebigfly thinks it should be Keroplatus sp. What do you think about this proposition ? Thanks Marina |

... or perhaps I misunderstood the text in this report. I probably did, when I come to think of it  |

Well, systematic changes happen all the time. I guess none of the books I consulted were up to date on this change.

Hi, this specimen bother me a bit: Hutson and Akland say (in brithish Hanbook IX) "hind coxae blackish at base on outer surface" And it's white here. And here that in R humerale fore basitarsus/ for tibia should be around 2. So i think it's Keroplatus sp., don't you? |
