Hi everyone! Smile

I found this female Nephrotoma oviposing on a field by a pond surrounded by pine trees near Gijón (Asturias), on May the 1st, 2015.

I have more pictures, if other information is needed to ID it properly.

Thank you very much for your help!

Thanks a lot, Axel!! Smile

I'm adding your proposal to the title, and let's see it it can be confirmed. At least, checking pictures of N. crocata, mine looks like it.

Regards
