Hello!

Photo taken today near forest (Ostwestfalen/Germany). What surprises me is that the male is considerably larger than the female (ca. 15 mm). Can they be identified? Thanks in advance!

My guess is Voria ruralis or Athrycia sp. but I'll wait for Theo to have a go :D

I'm not sure, but if this is the only picture my best guess would be Voria ruralis. Well predicted !
