These are also from Frankenhoehe Nature Park and I think the female from 2020-05-03 is lanigerus, but I'm not sure about the male and the couple - your comments are much appreciated. Greetings, Eric eklans attached the following image: [113.96Kb] Edited by eklans on 06-01-2021 11:47 |

Hi Theo, thank you very much for your Bibionisms I add 2 views of the female from 20-05-03 - these taken with flashlight. I thought the wings are too brownish for reticulatus (in the first foto without flash as well)? Greetings, Eric eklans attached the following image: [85.66Kb] |

Yes, I agree, this is in the lanigerus / johannis complex. But the copula is reticulatus. Look at the wing venation (and dark tibiae in male). I don’t think your “wall female”. is the same individual as the “copula female”, is it ?? Theo |

You are right, the "wall female" is not the "copula female" and I understand that only the wall female is lanigerus / johannis. Thanks a lot again, Theo! Eric |
