Yesterday at Frasno, Zaragoza, ne Spain, bushland with lavender, thyme, etc and pine repoblation. In flowers of Linum suffruticosum, that shares with the interesting beetle Anthaxia lucia (discovered in 2006 and that feeds only in this Linum). The buprestid shows the size of the Usia. What species is it? Thanks |

Probably Usia pusilla, but could be undescribed sp. |

Brrr... pusilla again? In Malaga I uploaded long time ago another Usia that resulted to be also a probably new species related with U. pusilla, but these was on Malva, not on Linum. And overall, these of Malaga was half smaller than this one - the Usia on Linum sizes about four milimeters. |
