About a month ago, I discovered, and had her photographs, this little insect, which is barely two millimeters, which seems to be of Australian origin, and can still be seen at: http://www.dipter...d_id=39793.
Yesterday, again, I found it on a fake vine leaves on the terrace of my house, urban area of Motril, Granada, Spain. Sampling along the four photos that I could do. Clicking on the image increases in size for a better view ..

I was told that had not been seen in Europe.
Any help to identify definitively.?
Paul, you still have not found identification keys.?

Best regards and thank in advance for your cooperation and help.

Certainly looks like Cryptanusia, rather than Cerapterocerus.

Thanks for the link Tony Irwin. Criptanusa, if I believe is right. It would be interesting to identify the species. This seems difficult.

Best regards.
