Hello, With this habitus and the peculiar scutellum, could this one be Elachiptera tuberculifera? Thank you for your help ! On a wood fence near a river in a humid wood.

it looks good to me with my limited knowledge - scutum evenly dusted, scutellum shield-shaped, nice big tubercles. Here's a specimen you can compare it with that's been determined by a specialist http://www.ispotnature.org/sites/default/files/images/16679/af2e17d099f80f6bbb8a683d7a9f2d42.jpg Jeremy |
