I have found that the pattern of your species corresponds to the Taiwanese Obereopsis lineaticeps (Pic, 1911) (here), but the length of the merafemurs seems to me different. |

Posted - 28/09/2014 : 16:22:42 Thanks, Francesco. But i`m don`t undestand really differences between Oberea\Obereopsis except long metafemur and size of body.. Very doubtless this species was be described among Obereopsis. Or i`m wrong? |
