Forum Entomologi Italiani

this was the most frequent melolonthid (couple of hundreds) that arrived at light in Greece, Peloponnese.
Anoxia pasiphae Reitter, 1890 - this specimens were collected in the night of 28-29.may.2010 (38.160128/21.369642)

on photos:
mounted male
genitalia
mounted female
male in nature
female in nature

the photos in nature were taken in the morning of 29.

and I think with this the species is more or less presented (will be nice to have some with eggs, larva... pupa )

hope you like them,
