I know, but too easy for anyone who knows the habitat of the species and can play with GE etc.
In any case, thanks for removing it. Didn't mean to be bossy (for once) ;)

The ursinii site was renamed to "Alpes dinariques à l'est de Gracac", but the name
of the nearest village still remains in the captions of pictures before and after...
Only an idiot would have a problem to solve the remaining puzzle... if he/she was
intent on doing so. Not that I think it's so terribly important, but if Jeroen feels the
responsibility, as he does, so should I.

In any case, congratulations to the team. I do envy you.


oh lalaaaa... I changed, now it's ok ?
Thanks for compliment.

Which I enjoyed & am grateful for, PY. If your captions would have been vaguer, I wouldn't have said a thing, except express my appreciation (which stands of course).

Other than that, it never hurts to dig this discussion up every now and then, how tedious it may be.

Frank has also a preliminary report ready, apparently...

Let me add that I think that rusty Emys looks like some "battle turtle" :lol:

I also like the colours and contrast of that male ursinii. Does anyone share my impression that those "hay colours" are more common in the lowland subspecies?

No, I think this is "common" in macrops.
just look on pictures in Smedt (engl. ed.), Brodmann or into the Amph.-Rept. database.
