Is it possible to tell something from this photo? Photographed in Bodø, northern Norway. Date: 09.07.2012. Size is maybe 15-20 mm. Geir79 attached the following image:  [192.64Kb] Edited by Geir79 on 23-07-2012 14:49 |

Hybomitra micans or auripila. I cannot give you exact ID, I have only few experiances with males. |

Interesting one. I'd say it is aterrima. Auripilia is nowadays included in aterrima. This seems to be some inbetween specimen. Theo |

So auripila is synonymous to aterrima? The females of H. auripila is very common in the area (I've had a few females identified from photos earlier on a Norwegian forum). I see the males I've photographed quite often in Bodø, but never managed to capture one. |
