Hello!
Is it possible to identify this Psyllid (maybe Cacopsylla spec.) from February 25, 2021, which was sitting on a tree trunk (Platanus) here in Leipzig (Saxony, Germany)?
Best regards,
Maik

Hi Maik, looks good for a very dark male Cacopsylla, which is a complicated genus. My
guess would be C. affinis due to the slightly yellowish membrane - C. melanoneura's is transparent.
Greetings, Eric

Hi Eric,
it's great that the genre is correct and good to know that to know that Cacopsylla affinis is possible.
Thank you for the quick help and best regards,
Maik
