Ciao Victor,
è una specie veramente bella

Una foto della femmina la si può vedere sul Leps.it Agrotis fatidica (Hübner, [1824]). Ha l'addome molto sviluppato che sporge da sotto le ali

Thank you Claudio ,

I have been searching for females several times , no luck yet . It is not like some other wingless females that can be found very easy - Lycia graecaria (Staudinger, 1879) for example.

Me too: I've been searching for females of this species on Gran Sasso, central Italy, when the males fly, but with no results .

This is the picture Yann Baillet sent me for leps.it:

Thank you Paolo ,

I saw this picture http://www.lepis.it is in my favorite list. Some 10 or more years ago a friend of mine has found a female already smashed my some tourist .. perhaps this is the only recent female collected. Another few that I know were collected before second world war ,they are kept in NMNH Sofia.
