Forum Entomologi Italiani

Posiblemente el cerambícido más raro de la Península Ibérica, sólo 4 exs. conocidos en la historia. Más los tres exs. con que se describió la especie en Marruecos hacen un total de sólo 7 individuos conocidos (al menos en lo que conozco).
El ejemplar fotografiado se capturó en la provincia de Málaga (Andalucía).
L. 8 mm.

very interesting capture... did it visit flowers?
Biology is known?

Yes! Visit Umbelliferae.
I do not know other biological data.

Thanks Claudio and Pierpaolo,
To be able to have in my hands, even if it is to photograph (since I was not who captured it) this little and rare beetle has been one of the greatest satisfactions of my entomological life!
Best regards
Antonio
