Syritta pipiens? Not sure what the other possibilities where you are might be.

There are a lot more Syritta's in Africa, but not in israel. This is indeed a female Syritta pipiens, nowadays a species from all over the world! Greetings Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

Thank you both! I first tried to find all species of this genus, and then finding out that there over 30, and that the publication about the revision of the genus costs 78 euros, I thought I won't find out the species...  Thanks again! |
