Ferdinandea croesus - Male
Off the Pacific Crest Trail, near Buck's Lake Road summit, Plumas County, California, USA
July 18, 2011
Once again...here I think I see four setae just anterior of wing bases on both the left and the right sides (zoom in on full-size image to see for yourself). Question is, are they all in the notopleural position...or are some appearing projected into that position via prespective (especially on the right side)?
