Hello everyone! I know the species in the Sepsidae family are difficult to identify. Is identification perhaps still possible? I'm thinking of Sepsis sp., possibly S. cf. punctum. Size: approx. 3 mm Date found: March 17, 2026 Habitat: Front garden in town, on spurge, probably Euphorbia myrsinites Location: Nuremberg region, district Nürnberger Land, 340 m above sea level BeJoCo attached the following image:  [161.63Kb] Edited by BeJoCo on 17-05-2026 18:00 Best regards Bernd |

To identify Sepsis from photo, you need a photo of the underside of the front thigh of a male. These are bristles there which are different for each species. James |

Hello James, thanks for your reply. That's a pity—I don't have it. In that case, it will have to remain "indet". Best regards Bernd |
