Sized about 7 mm., found in an open agricultural area in Valladares-Vigo (Spain) at 300 mts. This specimen was resting first thing in the morning on dry grass. At noon time I saw other adults nearby flying continuously underneath the shade of fruit trees. I caught a couple to verify if was the same species. Photo taken at 0830 hrs. onFeb., 11th 2008. Thanks again for the help. Rafael Rafael Estevez attached the following image: [132.13Kb] |
