A bigger micropezid, over 10 mm, maybe even 14. In forest.

Paul, why don`t you think this animal isn`t R. latifrons? I found this species also in Hungary. This specific specimen is in the collection of the Natural History Museum in Budapest ruud van der weele rvanderweele@gmail.com |

This is interesting: R. calceata is black or deep chocolate-brown, and has the rings on 2nd and 3rd femora. OK so far. BUT: Femora should be black proximally, here they are yellow and than black. And basitarsi should be white on 2nd and 3rd legs! R latifrons should be brown, femora are proximally yellowish-brownish, and only first tarsal segments are white. So it fits more likely! Am I right? Thank You Ruud! |

Honestly, I think that R. latifrons is much less rare than we sometimes think. The problem is that everytime you see a Rainieria, and they are not very rare around Budapest anyway, you think: "a, yes, sure a R. calceata". When you look a bit closer it becomes obvious that they do not all belong to the same species. Indeed, I look at the tarsi and the femora, then it becomes clear. Did you make also pictures of Micropeze angustipennis? I collected them nearby Szolnok. cheers ruud van der weele rvanderweele@gmail.com |

Thank You for the answer, the only Micropeza I saw is corrigiolata. By the way, I've never been in Szolnok - I collect 60% of my insects around Miskolc, in the Bukk mountains, and some 30% in Debrecen, at the edge of the Great Hungarian Plain. |

Possibly M. angustipennis occurs in the neighbourhood of Debrecen as well, alfoldon

I found an old photo of a R calceata, the difference is clear when one looks at both spicimens. 2008, near lake Balaton, W-Hungary. The big brown band on wing is also characteristic. pwalter attached the following image:  [113.56Kb] Edited by pwalter on 26-01-2010 20:54 |
