Taken by Francisco Rodriguez in Almeria, SE Spain in June 2012. I think it might be Otites sp. Confirmation or correct ID (and species if possible) will be most welcome. Thanks in advance! :)

Adding pictures of other specimens in the same area. I am pretty sure they are all the same. I am posting in the same thread just in case it helps.

I had to check my files and collection, as this is not common species to me. Yes, it is Otites maculipennis. Wonderful macrophotos, and I should greatly appreciatesubmission them to the gallery.

Thanks so much, Valery!! Of course, I will submit the pictures to the gallery. And Francisco will be most proud of having his pictures there :)
