Summary
[edit]Description |
English: Series of nymph and resulting imago of a Guanchia sp. male (very probably G. pubescens) from the Pyrenees, kindly sent to me by the Van Middelkoop family (thanks! :o). July-August 2015. Note the following: Illustrative use: Even with the "sub standard" features indicated above, it is my feeling that this series is worthwhile to share as it clearly illustrates some features that may prove useful in the identification of nymphs and imago, such as head structure and shape of eyes, density and length of hairs on abdomen and forceps, number and shape of antenna segments (use right hand antenna only!), shape/development of thoracic structures (use left hand side only!). As a side note: With the dark head and hairy forceps I did suspect it to be a nymph of Apterygida media at first. Surprise when the head came out so brightly orange and the wing casing (left) and forceps clearly of Guanchia type. This goes to indicate that the nymphs might easily be confused with A. media and these images may help to clear up identification issues at some point. |

Basically all my images and other media uploaded here can be used "as if" in the Public Domain (PD), meaning you are free to use my images in any way you want without asking permission, paying fees, attributing them to my name or whatever. For some countries this is not legally possible so you may apply a Creative Commons Zero (CC0) public domain dedication.
However, I do appreciate knowing about the usage of my images and if you feel you want to credit me that's fine too of course. I just want to give you the freedom to also use the image without contacting me and to not bother with credits if this would break the lay-out of the project you're working on - The choice is yours.
Contact info: E-mail form (speediest!) or Commons talkpage.
If you even have a budget available for the images to use in your project, you may want to consider spending some of it on a voluntary donation to the Wikimedia projects. Thanks!
