Hello,

The pictures below were made on the 29th of june this year, in my garden (Northwest of the Netherlands). Joke van Erkelens thinks (and hopes)Smile that it is Phaonia amabilis. I certainly hopes so too. These are all the pics I have so I hope Joke's ID can be confirmed.

Is this Phaonia amabilis?

Thank you very much.

Nobody? Frown

I'll hold it as Phaonia cf amabilis for now.
Best regards,

It is unknown to me. In my opinion, this is not P. amabilis, basal part of antennae should be yellowish, presutural mid stripes should be confluent... I don't know how better is this guess, but P. mystica is the most probable taxon by the keys. No other pictures ?
Stephane.

Hi Stephane, Thanks for replying. I have only this other photo. I don't think it'll add anything... I'll post two close-ups just in case... Still very curious...Smile
