Hi everyone!

(Always referring to "the book" ) : I'm not so sure about the slenderness of the palps, neither the paleness of the hind segment margins, but if I go with the thicker palps

(-> subcallus dusted -> frons narrow and narrowing downward -> red spots over first 3 segments),

I end up with either distinguenda (but far too many black hairs on the yellow abdomen parts), or bimaculata var. collini (but no dark hairs on front femurs to be found).


So can it be the slender palps, that lead me straight to Hybomitra arpadi then?
