Slovenia, Grosuplje, 400m, 29.6.2016 Can somebody tell if this is Metopia argyrocephala or is it M. rondaniana? I know Theo said something about the curly hairs on a fore tarsus but I still don't know how to deal with it

Because there are no curly hairs here.. Moreover, the very strong contrast between white and dark on the vertex also implies argyrocephala. To assess this, you need to have a lot of experience, it is tricky. In any case: male M. argyrocephala. Theo |
