August, 2018 - Berlin
I think it is a female but i haven't examined it. I found her prancing around on a mushroom.
She is dark, so D. hydei?

Thank you.

Thank you for this info, John. Excellent post!
I see now that i have both species. I'll attach a photo of repleta from May.
I have several similar specimens, so now i can sort them all out.
I appreciate you very much, John. :)

yes. Thank you, Paul. I forgot to change the title.
I have hydei somewhere too but i'm having trouble remembering the year and month.
I have over a million photos and i haven't had time to organize them through the years.
a bit sloppy with my organization of photos.
I'll try to track down hydei. I think it was from last year but my shoulder started hurting last year. I don't remember alot of photo sessions from last year.
