Hello, I have a specimen of Tabanus, quite difficult to identify. 11-12mm. Eye with one band (i'm not sure, the specimen was in alcohol). - median callus quite large, connected to basal callus (bromius group) - frons clearly narrower at the base, not parallel - antenna red without dark (segment 3 totally red/orange), segment 3 (base) not so elongate than bromius or maculicornis (of my little collection) - palp quite large and short, dark hair not really dense - vertex with pale hairs - postocular margin broad (like maculicornis) with long pale hairs - no black hair under eyes on each side of the antennas (maculicornis have those black hairs). Subgenital plate similar to bromius of my collection (but I have no publication with illustration of subgenital plate of european Tabanus) Any idea ? If one banded eyes, so it is bromius or maculicornis (in western France). With this large postocular margin, I think it's maculicornis but some criteria are missing (shape of the allula too, not similar to maculicornis). Thanks for your help, Benoît BLecaplain attached the following image:  [179.89Kb] Edited by BLecaplain on 09-08-2024 13:35 |
