Forum Entomologi Italiani

I think this is one Eulasia species, am I right? Could anyone tell the species?
Thank you

Eulasia vittata

A nice pucture of Eulasia (Trichopleurus) vittata ssp. lineata ab. pseudochrysura Miksic.
I believe that the status of this taxon need to be upgraded to subspecies.
The entire group Eulasia vittata with its forms and populations is presently under review.

What is interesting for me is the fact that you found this species on Scrofulariacee (i think) and not on thistles as commonly.
ciao, Guido

Thank you for Id

Guido, here I have a more 'classical' picture of this species I think. Together with Oxythyrea cinctella
They both were the most common species on flowers during my stay.

Lamiaceae, Phlomis sp. ... from this photo is impossible to say what species.
