Feel rather embarassed Shock to be asking this, given the excellent English on this site displayed by so many people from so many countries, but could someone help me with a translation of this excerpt from a German key to lacewings:

"Sehr markant Spezies; durch die im [the key] angegebenen Merkmale auch eidonomisch stets problemlos zu identifizieren"

It is the word "eidonomisch" that we are particularly struggling with.

Many thanks,
Martin

I think that Eidonomie means external morphology.

Very disctinct looking species: with the help of the characteristics in the key it is no problem to identify by the shape/form.

... or better wait for Frank & Co ... Grin

Thanks for your help everyone, and congratulations to Uncle Kahis (it's okay, I didn't have to spend a very long time looking up the definition of "cleified" before I realised what was going on Grin!)
