No!  This is Eumerus, copula! Did you catch them?  But about your question: two species in Spain (pipiens and flaviventris), three in Europe (third one, vittata, only in far eastern part if I am correct). Edited by Andre on 04-11-2007 23:01 |

Looks a bit like Eumerus pusilla... but impossible to confirm by a picture. |

But about your question: two species in Spain (pipiens and flaviventris), three in Europe (third one, vittata, only in far eastern part if I am correct). To be a bit more specific: pipiens is all over the place, most common one and introduced in the New World (where it is very common). flaviventris in the mediterranean, (als new to the US) and then the more central Asian vittata, but in Israel and Egypt you can find fasciata (=subtilis) (which has nearly no visible false vein) and latitarsata (which has a "flat" hind tarsus). Although Lyneborg and Barkemeyer did a good job with their Syritta book, there are still more species out there (maybe not in Europe).. I got at least 3 species which I can not ID with the book...
