Leucophora obtusa has the hindfemur with numerous long fine hairs and this seems not to be the case on your specimen. I am more thinking about Leucophora personata(Coll.). I think I can see some little hairs on the notopleural depression... Maybe you can make an crop of this area (area around prealar, humeri..) Johanna Edited by javanerkelens on 03-05-2013 15:22 |

Indeed the right crop! But now I don't see the little hairs on the notopleural depression, so....maybe we can't see the long hairs on the hindfemur on your photos. Prealar seems long and the gena seems to have rows of upwardly directed setae....... indeed maybe L. obtusa. To be honest....I find Leucophora always terrible to ID from photos, I always have doubts..

Hi Johanna, thank you very much for your explanations. I leave it as Leucophora cf. obtusa. Regards Andreas Andreas Haselboeck Stuttgart / Germany http://www.naturs... |
