Today I showed all collected turkish Sepsidae material to Andrey Ozerov.
Sepsis thoracica appears the most common species. It is a pleasure if it is yellowish-grey with hiary scutum, so easily distinguish. Often it looks as "usual" Sepsis, but with sternopleuras dusted only in upper part. I add one more image of non-yellow S. thoracica.
All good photos from this trip - S. thoracica.
Also I collected:
S. biflexuosa
S. fulgens (swarm of thousands near flowing water at 2100m)
S. luteipes
S. nigripes - the more interesting, first registred in Turkey.
