Again, there isn't S.umbratica in Gorodkov's key. I reexamened specimens of S.affinis from Moscow and Kursk reg. I have. All have yellow supracervical setulae near neck. But should I add to couplet with S.affinis head's supracervical setulae near neck black S. umbratica ?Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Andrzej i have just look thru the microscope... from what i can see all is black there. just taken also two photos thru the oculars (dorsal view and latero-dorsal view)... maybe i don't look where needed. from what i see is S.umbratica (from what is writen in the quote). thanks, cosmln cosmln attached the following image:  [120.46Kb] |
