Hello, don´t trust this (I am learner and my keys book is in german, so many times I don´t understand it)
Waiting for David, try this:
Platypygus ¿?? P. crysanthemi, (Asia minor), P. kurdorum (south Russia). This family is very interesting Smile

This one certainly fits the description of Platypygus chrysanthemi, however, the genus in need on revision and there seem to be rather alot of undescribed species.

I hate always to disappoint the collectors - but I have to! I find it hard to combine collecting with making photo's. If i try, I'm sure I will ruin my camera or so...
