Antenal lenght is shorter on coelaspis in average but I have already noted fairly significant variations of this characteristic on palmata. |

Thank you! Could you say how these species could be differed each other? |

So, it could be palmata widely spread on southern and tropical Africa or hassoni (typical area: Angola).
How can be differed these two species (palmata and hassoni)? |
