Sorry, the picture is not mine, in case it interests I can ask the owner to load it here. http://www.insectariumvirtual.com/galeria/details.php?image_id=76267 I´ve seen some whitish abdomens but never like that, it seems transparent and "fluid", pehaps it´s young or maybe any illness? I have references they are parasites but not as paratized ¿? Thanks in advance |

This is a freshly emerged male Gymnosoma, that's why the colours are not yet fixed (the wings are somewhat milky too). Have a look at this sequence  :http://www.galeri...-17481.htm Edited by Stephane Lebrun on 28-06-2009 20:57 Stephane. |
