Hello. I think this is a Dictya sp. Can someone confirm? From Buenos Aires, Argentina. LRubio7 attached the following image: [127.99Kb] Edited by LRubio7 on 10-09-2018 22:28 |

Hello! Nice pictures. The picture shows no prosternal bristels, at least one subalar bristle, a strong black spot on the face, elongate antennae, and the broadly exposed lunula – leading you with little doubt to Protodictya. Within Protodictya only few species.. without studying actual material, it will be very difficult to identify this specimen. It might be Protodictya iguassu (based on colour of legs, the ill defined lateral mesopleural stripe, length of antennae and second joint of arista, ...) but i have never seen this species before (even in collections) so I am absolutely not sure! Best practice in Protodictya is to collect... See you, Jonas |
