Hi !

France (entre),31 oct 2013.
Is it possible to choose between S. flava and affinis from this picture ?
I observed S. affinis has apex of tibias darkened, also last articles of tarses. Is it a significant characteristic ?

S. affinis or S. umbratica ! By S. flava the dorsal surface of scutellum is not totally hairy.
