Hello, JP Durand : France : Rambouillet : 78120 : 04/07/2011 Altitude : 160m - Taille : 5-10mm Réf. : 74089 On our French forum, several members think it could be Urophora jaceana. What doyou think about it? Thanks in advance. Pierre Duhem |

Chere Pierre: Yes, it is. I'd prefer to see also its femora (yellow or black), because there is a little chance of U. aprica and U. lopholomae, which normally have 1st and 2nd crossbands separated narrowlier. The apical pair of crossbands, otherwise, is typical for very dark jaceana. Is it shot in a meadow? Val |

Valery, Thanks a lot. The author of the picture had said it was taken on an Helianthus. I ask him to give more details on the terrain. Pierre Duhem |
