Forum Entomologi Italiani

Hello !


I need some help for this bup caught in the southern Armenia a few months ago. It was swimming in the swimming-pool of our B&B in Aygedzor, close to Meghri at the iranian border.

I think it's a Perotis lugubris, but I have no idea about the ssp : longicollis or something else ...

The size is 13 mm.

Many thanks for your help.

Unluckily I have never seen Perotis lugubris mutabilis, but I think your specimen belongs to Perotis lugubris longicollis Kraatz, 1880.
