Terellia sp. near ruficauda. Apparently an undescribed separate species. |

R.I.P. She died unnamed. Indeed, the so-called "dark form of ruficauda" is considered now as a good candidate to become a "good species". It was Severin's bachelor project, but the paper remains unpublished, because the possible neotype specimen from Sweden gave no good result in PCR and sequencing of DNA. Now, he looks for other specimens from Sweden... That's the story... Val |
