Should be, though I recently started wondering about the variation of the colour of this species. The above specimens Have much more dark and grey than others, that are clearly orange-yellow...

So far only the Iberian Peninsula up to the Pyrenees. And yes, genitalia are different. Rest assured, in Germany only inusta. In fully coloured specimens inusta has darkened fore tarsi, contrary to pseudoinusta.

Thank you, Paul. I appreciate you taking time to reply. i see dark tarsi, so it must be inusta. I'd post a photo but i don't want to hijack the thread
