Hi Nikita Now this is interesting, how often do you see Eudasyphora cyanicolor a green-blue colour, all of mine are dark blue - I still wonder if cyanella and cyanicolr can hybridise? does any one know Dr Elisabeth A. Harris @FloraConsUK |

The key for the Norwegian species (http://www.entomo...2_1979.pdf) clearly leads to Dasyphora cyanicolor; as to its colour it is stated: "thorax and abdomen shining dark blue-green". The males of the two other species show densely hairy eyes (not seen here). Acccording to Nihei & De Carvalho (2007) Eudasyphora is a subgenus of Dasyphora (http://www.bio-ni...uscini.pdf) - is there any reason that is still should be treated as a genus of its own? |

1. Elisabeth, as Sundew fairly wrote, the colour is variable whereas the bare eyes is an important character. 2. Sundew, in Europe presently is accepted to regard Eudasyphorav as genus. My opinion? I suspect that generic status is groundless. What to do? Let us wait for molecular phylogeny results. Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Thanks very much, I look forward to the molecular phylogeny its long overdue
