Hi Amir, This beautiful Mydidae could either be a Syllegomydas or a Rhopalia. I would need to see the wing venation more clearly. Do you still have the specimen? So far, only Leptomydas maculatus and Syllegomydas palestinensis have been recorded from Israel, but I am sure more species occur in this country. Torsten DikowT@si.edu http://asiloidfli... |
