Crimea and its attractions: endemics, rarities and beauties

That's right, according to the photos-May-early June. I don't do plate sawyers and I don't know them either

As for the Zinchenko collection, yes, it is not there,
................
If you don't mind, catch them, okay?
................
But you may also have E. affinis, which is also interesting.

Something http://www.google.com there is no mention of this crunch either. Is there a typo in the word "subcericeus"?

You can catch a couple of them, of course. But how do you pass them on?

The bronze was light green in color, absolutely without a pattern. It is about one and a half or two times larger than the usual dark green mottled bronze, which we have plenty of (aurat?).
On bronzes - once again met Marble. It was at the beginning of September 2006, on a forest road in the mountains, a little west of the village of Shchebetovka (Karadag).

still can't find Google subseriatus - neither genus nor species.. Maybe there are specific links? Or do you have a picture of him?

Why doesn't it find it? Perfectly finds!

True, only the name, without photos.

So that's the whole point.. Without a photo, the name and description of this species does not give me anything, since there are so many similar ones..

At the moment, unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to take pictures from my collection, but I assure you, gentlemen, that this crunch is quite easy to recognize and not to be confused with others. Here, even in the time of summer, they all differ. So, for example,
H. subseriatus flies from the second half of February to April;
H. (M.) tuaricus, H.(M.) aequinoctialis - from March-April to the second half of May. Sometimes a little later (depending on the weather).
A. solstitialis grossatus - from the second half of May to the whole of June.
Here, perhaps, are all the Crimean Rhizotroginae.
As for the differences, as I have already said, H. subseriatus is narrow, small (7-10), black, or black-brown with longitudinal, rather dense rows of gray or reddish hairs on the elytra, which makes the beetle look flat.
H. (M.) tuaricus, H.(M.) aequinoctialis - much larger and stockier (10-17), monotonously red-brown, with thick reddish hairs below, pronotum rather densely pubescent with long erect hairs interspersed with short pressed ones, elithras-almost naked.
A. solstitialis grossatus - (11-17), dirty yellow or brownish yellow, darker pronotum, with large brownish longitudinal spots on the disc. The edges are lighter. Elytra with distinct ribs in sparse short hairs.
As you can see, it is quite easy to scatter these types. Hope this helps.
Sincerely,...

Very interesting, take a photo.!
