Chrysis flamaryi Du Buysson, 1898 from Morocco

[Tom Kwast]

Hello together,

in June 2012 I found this nice cockoo wasp Chrysis flamaryi Du Buysson, 1898 flying around bushes of Juniperus in south of Sefrou near Fès, Morocco.

Chrysis flamaryi male on Juniperus

Male of Chrysis flamaryi

Collecting place: Marocco, south of Sefrou, 03. June 2012

This species seems to be new to the forum.

All the best
Tom

Tom!

Congratulations:
You took beautiful pictures, beautifuls specimens and you are also able to correctly ID all of them!
Did some Niehuis help you?
(considering the Buprestids ...)

Although Chrysis flammaryi is not so rare in Morocco, only few specimens can be found in collection.



Cheers

Hello Paolo,

the species I already posted are for my understanding easy to identify, but I have some hard nuts I will post here soon.

By the way I really like your papers and chrysis.net, so thats why I want to add some new species to the forum.
