Chloropidae, Oscinellinae: Oscinimorpha novakii (Strobl, 1893). Not rare in all Mediterranean countries incl. Israel. The long proboscis protruding over the mouth margin, being blackish above; At least the first two tergites of the abdomen reddish-brownish, mostly the whole abdomen reddish (rare in this genus); three slightly impressed furrows on the mesonotum (= scutum), misleading beginners to the genus Tricimba; a robust Oscinimorpha, flower visitor similar to O. minutissima, O. koeleriae and Trachysiphonella ruficeps (= pygmaea). Larval substrate unknown.

Hello,

I'm curious, what would be the difference between Oscinimorpha longirostris (Loew, 1858) and O. novakii (Strobl, 1893)?

Thank you very much.

Miguel Ángel
