I have no better suggestion.

hello, I know I´m late, but I´ve been looking at these 2 pictures with Lindner´s keys (it doesen´t cover D. borealis (recorded here too) but I think it´s not probable in these places)
- http://www.insect...16424.html
- http://www.insect...61449.html
and I arrived to D. cf. bispinosus too, but I don´t trust Lindner´s book to be valid today; now trying to find it here I´ve seen this post
?
Thanks anyway
Regards
