Thanks a lot Stephane!!

I was hoping this answer ;) But as I only see a couple of ventral bristles near the end of the femora, I was hoping more for a female H. annosa.

Does it only work for males?

No for females too, but it is not enough visible on your pictures.

Thanks once more, Stephane!! |t

I thought the last picture might have been clear enough but I have no experience AT ALL with these so I am just trying ;)

Hope to find the Helina annosa one day :D
