Hi!

In relation to this topic:

I would like to show you something:

At the turn of June and July 2015 I was looking for Saphanus piceus bartolonii on the slopes of Mount Ossa. I searched and I found!
And now I have the same doubts as Marci: whether it sure is Saphanus? Morphologically more like a beetles of the genus Drymochares! For now, however, unless there is a revision of these genus, I sign it as S. piceus bartolonii.
