Hi Rui - EXCELLENT! :o) And yes, I would agree with the ID on both.
Where did you get the character for the relative length of the antennal segments? I know of a mention for seg.4+5 that proved to be unreliable. This _seems_ to pan out for the specimen I've checked so far ... might be helpful (!)
Cheers, Arp
P.S. Could you please geotag? Or send me coords ... interested to know where these are sympatric in Portugal :o) Posted 7 years ago, modified 7 years ago

I took the pronotum measurements from the Ancyrosoma edition, and noticed i'm my specimens the difference between the segments described on the photo. Can this characters help to describe both species? Posted 7 years ago, modified 7 years ago
