Beetle - Tritoma erythrocephala

Tritoma erythrocephala?

Possibly T. erythrocephala. The body shape is correct and the legs look orange in color. But, to confirm, I'd need to see a beter ventral picture. Tritoma erythrocephala is in a group that have very weakly dilated tibiae. There are other groups which can have similar color patters that have more widened tibiae.

will seek confirmation, but we need more pix of this sp. for the guide in any case --well worth trying harder... pleeease? thanks!

Moved from Beetles.
