seemingly immature (female  ) of Ophonus (Hesperophonus) sp.hind tarsi dorsally are glabrous, except for apical setae of each tarsomere, or pubescent over the whole surface? |

It is surely not an Ophanus species because the elytral striae are almost smooth and the pubescence is dense, long and depressed. It is also not immature because I have several identical specimens. According to Sciaky, 1983 there is only one subgenus of Ophonus which has depressed pubescence, O.(Cephalophonus), which contains only 1 species, O. cephalotes. It is 12-15 mm. So this can't be O. cephalotes, so can't be an Ophonus either. (Tarsi are pubescent over the all surface) |

Male genitalia of an identical male specimen confirms that it is not Ophonus (ostium is not in the left side but it is in the upper surface.)

I have 30 specimens and 10 of them are as light as this, 5 of them are a little bit darker than this and 15 of them are black. I checked the aedeagus of a black specimen and it is identical |

are male tarsi dilated as usual in Ophonus, or not? |
