 Hi, this is strange for me. Somehow it remainds me Odiniidae but I don't know. June 22.2009 Loviisa, Finland.

 I think I set a Greek specimen aside under Odiniidae as well, but that one was in alcohol, so I did not see much of the colour patterns that are visible in this specimen.

 I would like to see this specimen: I have determined that there are 2 species of Neoalticomerus which have been mixed - it would be very useful to ad this to the range of localities.

 Hi, I got mail from Phil. The species is dissected and identified for sure as formosus.
