Hello, Can it be another Ancylorhynchus species from East Turkey? Thanks a lot. Muhabbet Cesa attached the following image:  [99.9Kb] Edited by Cesa on 19-08-2012 19:16 |

Muhabbet, I believe this is a sp. of Saropogon, with an unusual-shaped proboscis (somewhat recurved, or possibly the hypopharynx is protruding?). Note the stout protibial spine; Ancylorhynchus lacks this structure.. Eric |

Proboscis look long and quite straight, so it's more like Saropogon. Lukasz |
