Or is there variation in this like in colour ? http://galerija.f...pos=-31021 The colouration is very variable: http://www.lepifo...ia_Antiqua I think I see two dark brown brushes here and two fusing white ones. The relatives O. antiquoides and O. recens have no real brushes, only some kind of hairy pads. http://www.lepifo...e_Raupen_2 Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |
