That's funny, I came to almost the same conclusion after visiting a Korean Ichneumon-site. But you won! I was too late.. http://165.229.28...second=ICH There I found 'Ichneumon sarcitorius (chosensis?)', which has many similar characteristics. It is a pitty that I did not make a picture from the front and with the wings spread out! But I am satisfied!, It is a little bit 'on soft ice' but it is close to the fire I think.. Thanks a lot, Best regards, Robert Heemskerk Edited by Robert Heemskerk on 25-10-2005 17:23 |
