Hello, using Papeīs and Povolnyi & Verves' keys it seems fit M. punctata (no vissible lines in thorax, colour of abdomen, 3 well defined spots on terguites..) but these are the species recorded in Spain Miltogramma aurifrons Miltogramma brevipila Miltogramma iberica Miltogramma oestracea Miltogramma punctata Miltogramma ruficornis (= murinum a px-sar) Miltogramma taeniata Miltogramma testaceifrons I havenīt found any key nor description for M. aurifrons, in case it is Miltogramma, cpuld anyone discard M. aurifrons and really say M. punctatum (or say the genera in case itīs not Miltogramma?) Photographs taken by Miguel Yuste (used with permission http://www.biodiv...earch.html) - in Segovia (Central Spain) - in a city garden - 17th. july (2010) Thanks again :) paqui attached the following image: [52.1Kb] Edited by paqui on 22-08-2010 17:10 |

A lateral view, the spider was really small! (http://www.biodiv...earch.html) The lateral spot of terguites (seen in the upper view) become in this lateral view a long band paqui attached the following image: [51.34Kb] |

This is not M punctata as punctata has dark antennae. M aurifrons is similar to M germari (missing on your list) and very different from your specimen. You are missing another species on your list: Miltogramma rutilans and I am convinced that your specimen is indeed M rutilans. Tolra nor Fauna Europaea mention that species from Spain. But I have it from Spain myself. Liekele |
