Here is a Chloropidae I photographed near Marseille on 11 March 2017.
I suspect this is Pseudogaurax. Is is feasible to go further to species level?
I have some specimens in collection, which I can photograph further if need be.
What to use for Chloropidae identification in France, as Séguy (1934, Faune de France 28) may be out of date ?
Thanks for any advice !
Gabriel
