File talk:Oxythyrea funesta in Ishim, Russia.jpg

ID

Look at the spots on the pronotum - this is clearly not Tropinota hirta, it's Oxythyrea sp. Judging by the spots on the pronotum and elytra, the central longitudinal smooth line on the pronotum, hairiness and it's location - West Siberia, it must be Oxythyrea funestra. --Dimitǎr Boevski (talk) 19:56, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
