It doesn't look like Eumorphus quadriguttatus to me. This one is Eumorphus marginatus.

    You're welcome, but the ID is still Eumorphus quadriguttatus. The problem is that they all have the same common name so it is confusing the system.
    
    I have fixed it now, there were two IDs simultaneusly, it happens every once in a while. Posted 8 years ago, modified 8 years ago
