I would appreciate confirmation that this is a Parageron and the species if it is possible. Thanks a lot in advance.

Taken in the outskirts of Madrid on the 19th March 2011.

Can it be Parageron incisus? Or is it a Micrusia? Thanks for any help! Smile

Parageron incisus does not seem to be such a bad suggestion. Wink

separating female incisus and gratus is often easy on size alone, but there is overlap. From photos size is no use and the critical features are difficult to discern in any but the best photos.

In this case i suspect gratus but cannot definitively rule out incisus.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
