Hi, At first I thought it was just Otiorhynchus sulcatus, but looking at the images I began to doubt. Not having the opportunity to compare the differences other than by looking at images, I came to the conclusion that it must be Otiorhynchus rugosostriatus (no brownish markings on shield). Am I right? Andr? Jas Andre Jas attached the following image: [47.37Kb] |

Hi Andr?, two facts: (1) the Otiorhynchinae are a very large and difficult subfamily. (2) you don?t need support Your id is perfect.

Hi Frank, Fact 1: true Fact 2: I do need your expert support. I'm a rookie and you're the expert that can tell the difference by the tiniest differences. So I will continue to ask for your and others' opinions in the future. Thanks. Andr? Jas |
