    Howdy,

    It's a male Clanoptilus and as with your Malachius (cf.) lusitanicus the other day there are two or three option. From the top of my head C. elegans, C. arneizi and maybe one more ... A full dorsal shot of the pronotum (shape!) and close-ups of antennae and the structures on the tips of the elytra could be very helpful
    Same as with the Malachius I would be very, very interested in seeing some specimen as I'm currently working on a key for these in our region and it would be good to see specimen from "far away" of the same species and/or closely related species to understand the intricacies of the IDing characters better.

      I do now recall your interest, but I didn't colect any of this ones. I'm sorry for that. Anyway, I have some more shots from another individual from the same area of this specimen

      , photographed a month later: I'll upload it right away. Hope that this ones can be more clear to achieve an ID. I'll be right back, Thanks so much! cheers       Posted 8 years ago
