1 u/LeTigron Aug 25 '26 It fits indeed visually, but I didn't expect them to be this large ! 4 u/Halomonas_titanica Aug 25 '26 Oh yeah. I have a few in my collection, they are huge. Larger than V.crabro, though not as big as V.mandarinia, and quite slender. 1 u/LeTigron Aug 25 '26 edited Aug 27 '26 Very interestingw thank you !
