Hello, While sorting older pictures, I came on this one :  Pierre Duhem : France : 15/10/2006 : Paris : 75018 altitude : 50 m - taille : 12-13 mm ref=15237 No hairy bands, it is not E. tenax.  Pierre Duhem : France : 15/10/2006 : Paris : 75018 altitude : 50 m - taille : 12-13 mm ref=15238 Most ofthe time, when not E. tenax, it is E. pertinax.  Pierre Duhem : France : 15/10/2006 : Paris : 75018 altitude : 50 m - taille : 12-13 mm ref=15239 But the colour of the legs shows it is not E. pertinax. The pterostigma seems to rule out E. similis. Can somebody help me out of this? Thanks in advance. Edited by pierred on 18-02-2007 19:21 Pierre Duhem |
