Hello,

With such a facial gibbosity can we eliminate Neoitamus cothurnatus ?
(Spa, Belgium, 29-06-2017, size 15mm)

Thanks
Christine

I would say this is a female Neoitamus socius...

Although females are very hard to id with certainty. The rather small facial gibbosity and the partly red metatarsi would indeed point at Piluca's ID.
