Goliathus Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 I've just been informed that Gymnetis caseyi has recently been re-named Gymnetis thula (Ratcliffe, 2018):http://texasento.net/caseyi.htmhttps://bugguide.net/node/view/68158 By the way, has anyone here ever seen a thula quite like this one? - https://bugguide.net/node/view/736046 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goliathus Posted August 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 That specimen shown on BugGuide is an unusual colour variant from the far southern tip of TX (Brownsville). Whether this variant turns up regularly in that area, or if this specimen is rather unique, I have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle-Experience Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Two of my photos were used in Brett Ratcliffe's newly published revision of Gymnetis (where the species revision was published). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
