Hi Robert, Jan Willem is right, it's an Campiglossa. Probably C. misella, but that is very difficult to determine from a picture... You state, you found it 'today'. You mean you actually found this specimen alive on februari the 1st?? The earliest records I have of a Campiglossa is a C. absinthii on may 18th! Therefore I would be very interested in the exact data, including the locallity, and if you happen to have collected the specimen I would like to confirm the identity. Best wishes, John |
