We identify without indisputabbly the sub-Family Allantinae with download/file.php?id=81974
This sub-Family is a Selandriinae (sensu Berland, see the 4th line before the end in the key above)
I was not able to use my key ( viewtopic.php?f=375&t=38250&p=216902#p216902 ) , because I did not envisage the very accidental “melanic form” of Abdomen.
I thus used the work of Taeger (that I did not known when I drafted this one) to determine the Genus, without taking into account the color of Tergites, I found Empria.
---
Det. of Genus :
See the Taeger’s key (only n° 1 to 9 p.108/109), followed with key of Benson 1952 (only n° 4 p.84)
Remark : for Taxonus included in Taeger’s key, Macek represents the known European species (The habitus is completely different of our capture)
----
Det. of species, based on Benson’s key (only n° 1 to 6 p.86/87, numbering of this Author), followed with Berland’s key (only n° 7/8 p.213) [which is identical to Enslin’s key]
[I did not find the description of E. granatensis Lacourt 1988 (species of the Southwest of France and Spain)]
1 - Eyes long oval --> 3
3 - Claws with inner tooth (see the bad photo) --> 6
6 - .. Hind ocelli further apart from each other than their distance from the hind margin of the Head
- & Antennal segment 8 is less than 3 times longer than broad (our capture with 2.7 times) --> 7/8 (Berland’s key p.213)
- sexpunctata (Serville 1823) [= klugii (Stephens 1835)], Also captured in Italy
