Forum Entomologi Italiani

I caught one Aegomorphus that is different than the others. It is the number 1 A. This can be francotei? I enclose a photo of parameters, but which resemble A. clavipes.
Locality 1. Greece, Karditsa prov.,Kallithiro env. 28.5.2011 15mm
2. Greece, Pieria prov.,Neoi Poroi 25.5.2011 ex. larve Populus 13mm
thanks, Dave

Hello Dave,

So,it is not francottei

Very likely Aegomorphus clavipes (Schrank, 1781)

Thank you for your reply. It would be Photo A.francottei? I know him only from offprints.

David, why don't you extract both males?
Here is the pdf with description of A.francottei, thanks to Gianfranco and Marcello.
