Hello Andreas, This is indeed a male Eumerus. However, the base of the third femur is not visible. So E. funeralis cannot be excluded. The ocellar triangle does however, exclude E. sogdianus. The best way is to identify the specimen is to examine the genitalia. Greetings, Ectemnius |

I had found another pic who shows the base of the hind femur. Now it looks good for Eumerus funeralis? Regards Andreas Andreas Haselboeck attached the following image:  [99.38Kb] Andreas Haselboeck Stuttgart / Germany http://www.naturs... |
