Taken by Francisco Rodriguez in Almeria, SE Spain in June 2012. I think it might be Otites sp. Confirmation or correct ID (and species if possible) will be most welcome. Thanks in advance! Smile

Adding pictures of other specimens in the same area. I am pretty sure they are all the same. I am posting in the same thread just in case it helps.

I had to check my files and collection, as this is not common species to me. Yes, it is Otites maculipennis. Wonderful macrophotos, and I should greatly appreciatesubmission them to the gallery.
