When I see the long snout I recognize this species, but this time I was wrong. Thanks Theo. Edited by thijsdegraaf on 25-04-2024 11:25 http://www.tuin-t...engels.htm

I should have looked more closely at the post-angular vein indeed. Fortunately, Theo paid more attention. Regards, Thijs Edited by thijsdegraaf on 25-04-2024 18:15 http://www.tuin-t...engels.htm
