--> Genus Javra

* Determination of sp. tricincta ♂ :

There are 7 European sp.
in Schmiedeknecht :

jemilleri, opaca, quadriannulata, tenebrosus have not the characteristics of our capture.
thuringiaca ♂ is unknown, but this sp. ♀ is only know in Oriental Europe & in Germany.
in Morley :

anomala ♂ is unknown, the sp. ♀ is classified in Pimplinae, thus certain characteristics are not close from the sp. below.
in Schmiedeknecht :

tricincta ♂, the description of this Author describes well our capture.

Of where the determination

[tricincta was not captured in Italy, but this sp. is present in the bordering Countries]
