Please, update!! It is very important, that we have this full name on PN and the net! Thanks!
Thanks for ID!
Eurybrachidae, Eurybrachinae, Loxocephalini, Paropioxys bellus, female. Many thanks, Jérôme Constant for your assistance with the ID, much appreciated!!
I sent Jérôme an email for helping...
Same genus I would say... I try to get some more info about it...
This one from Malawi seems quite close. Also not IDed beyond family level: https://www.fugleognatur.dk/forum/show_message.asp?MessageID=1457873&ForumID=10
Welcome Project Noah Rein! Bayucca, any way we can attract Jerôme's attention to this spotting? A group we could post it to?
Hello Rein and Welcome to the Project Noah community! We hope you like the website as much as we do. There are many aspects to the site and community. The best way to get started is to read the FAQs at http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you can find all the tips, advice and "rules" of Project Noah. You, like the rest of the community, will be able to suggest IDs for species that you know (but that have not been identified), and make useful or encouraging comments on other users' spottings (and they on yours). There are also "missions" you can join and add spottings to. See http://www.projectnoah.org/missions . A mission you should join is the http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/2166986003 to chose the best wild photo of 2017,only the spottings added to that mission are eligible.Note that most missions are "local". Be sure not to add a spotting to a mission that was outside of mission boundaries or theme :) Each mission has a map you may consult showing its range. We also maintain a blog archive http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we have posted previous articles from specialists from different geographical areas and categories of spottings, as well as wildlife "adventures". So enjoy yourself, share, communicate, learn. See you around :)
Wonderful one! Sorry, cannot really help you. There s probably only one guy in the world who can ID this one: Jerôme Constant.
