No, much more interesting. The second aristomere is elongated, is that right ? Theo Edited by Zeegers on 18-12-2018 08:19 |

OK, so Admontia it is. Before we go any further, what does "CS Spain" means ? Altitude of locality, please (by approximation)? Theo |

It means "south center". Sorry, but I write in Spanish without realizing. The precise location is Cabañeros National Park, 39º20'N 4º16'W , alt. 690 m. |

Thanks. Somwemcan exclude highland species. Admontia is a difficult genus. I see a broad parafacial and only one ad bristle on mid tibia. That is a combination that should not occur. So .... You did not collect it, by any chance? Theo |

No, I didn't collect it. I think there are only three species in iberian peninsula: A. pyrenaica, A. blanda y A. maculisquama. Forgetting about the first one, one ad on mid tibia leads to A. blanda, however I think don't fit presutural stripes, isn't it? |

No it does not. One thing is sure: it is NOT blanda. Theo |

I think I see weak ad bristles, no longer than diameter of tibia, above the large bristle on mid tibia. |

The second one is broken off, you can see the pore. That explains a lot. So, this female is similar to maculisquama, though it is less yellow than Central European ones. |
