Hi John,
I don't see
Diaphorinae in the Gallery. Do you mean
Diaphorus spec. ?
Thank you,
Gert

Genera
Chrysotus and
Diaphorus are both in subfamily Diaphorinae (which is not normally written in italics). I consider them practically impossible to distinguish in North America. They are more different in Europe, which may reflect different concepts of genera or a lack of intermediate species.

Thanks for clarifying this, John.
And sorry about the italics; I must have mixed up subfamily and genus :|
Best regards,
Gert
