No, Macronemurus has an abdomen longer than the wings and with long cerci. I think that it's a Myrmeleon. |

Thank you both for your help. It seems that we are only going to get a family-level ID.  jorgemotalmeida wrote: Myrmeleontidae. Thank you for the correction |

According to the Agostino, expert on neuropters, this is very probably a female of Creoleon lugdunensis. At least, it is Creoleon sp. Therefore it is Myrmeleontidae > Creoleon lugdunensis |
