I also thought of it, but just in case I put it in the stain, it turned out-not for nothing smile.gif

how can I distinguish a magnet from a 7-point one? Maybe we have them too?

Outwardly, they are certainly similar, but in the 7 - point epimera, the posterior thorax is black, and in the magnifica they are brown. The magnifica is more convex, and its spots are larger, and there may be (and sometimes may not be) a 9th dot-like spot on the top of the elytra.
