No clue with this one, but pretty characteristic with those enormous antennae. Wink

Rondani did not spell it consistently in the paper where he described the new genus. It appears first as "Cryptochetum" and 5 pages later as "Cryptochoetum".

Yes, buccatum because the costal section between R1 and R2+3 is about three times as long as the section between R2+3 and R4+5. On both other European species (C. grandicorne and C. jorgepastori) it is less then twice as long.

Hi Paul!!

But why coastal sections with antennae so very distinctive. Grin C. grandicorne and C. jorgepastori have very short third segment in comparison with C. buccatum.
How you experts like to make things difficult!!!! Grin (joke, of course. Wink)

Thanks for your explanation!! TumbsUp

Groetjes!
