Aywailles-Belgium (20-05-2008) With that black vitta on abdomen strongly broadened, could it be Ectophasia leucoptera (mâle) ? Christine Devillers attached the following image:  [83.25Kb] Edited by Christine Devillers on 13-09-2009 15:46 |

The dark vitta is not broadened, it is broad. There is a difference. This is a melanistic form, can't tell from these pics what it is. if you collected it: look at the colours of the hypopleural bristles. Otherwise, it is Ectophasia spec. There is no reason why it could not be crassipennis. Theo |
