Hmm... exceptionaly hairy eyes... I am going to bet it's Ernestia puparum - but with a bit more colour on the scutellum |

Hi Chris. This time I havn't forgot about Ernestia puparum! I met it in the very heart of "puparum site". But. 1. Veins looks weekly coloured. 2. Typical white bends on abdomen absent. Is it still OK for Ernestia puparum? Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Well, Ernestia puparum is a rare species here so I haven't much experience of it myself. I agree the colouration is different and the wing markings aren't so bold but the size, shape and those very hairy eyes shout "ERNESTIA!!!" to me |
