This is an Ectobius nymph, but it's difficult to tell a species, as the nymphs are often paler than the adults. Some are shown in http://www.alt.de...tobius.htm, but I also see E. vittiventris very often in Ba-Wü (described in e.g. https://www.zobod...6-0170.pdf). So Ectobius spec.! Regards, Sundew |
