Good ! I found a way to insert a picture as the "smart way". Starting photos stored in Google Picasa, the important thing is: - Open Google Picasa in "Public Galleries" and not in "your photos" - Do not use for a photo, "link" but the window "insert the image into a web page" - Define the dimensions of the photo Very easy ... since you know how to do it !  |

Jean-Marc thank you for your information on arion at Cocures in France. That looks an interesting female and race. However I do not think it is the high alpine obscura . Some specimens here. These and other specimens have locality data but I need up to date information on a locality to visit. The Valais seems good but which area. information needed please.  Well, I have decided to stay in the Valais of Swizerland, booking a hotel at Simplon dorf high up on the Simplon Pass for the first week of July. Looking forward to seeing and photographing some nice alpines and the beautiful Laquintal Valley where M. arion obscura flies is not far away. Looks a good habitat or biotype if you prefer.   Super images JMG. |
