Can you send a male for genital dissection?

I have 119 specimens so i can send a male. In Fauna ent scand it says that if it is big and orange it should be A. rufescens but can I trust that? I want to identify all of them so it is problematic if i have to dissect all the males. |

I picked apart a male OBS not the same specimen. I can't find what is what or any similarities to the species i Fauna ent Scand. mossnisse attached the following image:  [94.25Kb] |

As far as I can judge, it does seem to fit Amiota rufescens best. However I have never actually studied material of this species. It is not known from the Netherlands  .

Thanks i wasn't known from Sweden either but from Finland nearest locality Oulu Finland so it's strange that it's one of the most common species in the trap material. |

But they are all likely to be the same species.
