I am pretty sure this is a Chrysophilus, but it was really big compared with all Chrysophilus I have seen. About 1 cm long. I have gone through the keys but I get all mixed up ![]() Found sitting on lower vegetation by a river in the outskirts of Madrid on September the 22nd 2013. Thanks for whatever help!! ![]() Piluca_Alvarez attached the following image: ![]() [168.35Kb] |

Another view. The tips of the wings are not hyaline. They look a bit greyish ![]() Piluca_Alvarez attached the following image: ![]() [171.76Kb] |

It is very similar to this one, which could very well be Chrysopilus laetus. However, this group is taxonomically very complicated...

Thanks a lot, Paul ![]() ![]() Of the species recorded in Spain, I know for sure it isn't asiliformis, auratus, flaveolus and splendidus. I think it could be pullus or torrentium, which I know have something dark on the wings apart from the pterostigma. But no more information ![]() |

After a long search I finally got the description of torrentium. It is very close to cristatus. According to Narchuk, pullus should have darkened pleura. So, I have to agree with Paul it is similar to laetus. What bothers me, though, is the darkened wing tip Theo |
