Thanks, you're so kindSmile. But I feel more like a minesweeper and sometimes mines blow up awkward... I rely too much in keys (some maybe out of date), and I see isn't always effective. I must start to collect many specimen and increase knowledge in morphology!

Ciao Valerio,

My IDs normally explode in my face, 110% sure with much more frequency than in your case!!! TumbsUp TumbsUp TumbsUp

Personally I loathe keys. Angry
Usually the worst method to ID common species. Very difficult to 'brew' adecuate keys, very diffilcult indeed.


¡Saludos! Smile
