Hello,


I found this insect in Fussen (Allgäu, Germany) on a rock face in July 2016.
My guess is a species from the Machilidae family.

A beautiful member of the Machilidae indeed! Unfortunately, identification from a photo is impossible in most cases, also in this one. The specimens have to be carefully dissected, as the "Exkursionsfauna von Deutschland - Insekten" tells us.

OK,

I thought so, that it is not possible to determine this species on the photo.
I also read the section in the "Excursion Fauna of Germany" later.


Best regards, Heiko

Hello,
With speckled eyes, antennae longer than body and habitus, I can identify the genus: Machilis. But this genus has about 100 species ...
