From midwest Sweden 2006-10-12. It was found this way (dead) outdoors on the metallic wall of a small garden shed. The size was close to 10 mm. I think this is an Anisopodidae sp!? According to my insect book there are five species of this family in Sweden and at Fauna Europaea I found five Sylvicola species recorded from Sweden:
- Sylvicola fuscatoides
- Sylvicola fuscatus
- Sylvicola punctatus
- Sylvicola stackelbergi
- Sylvicola zetterstedti

Is it possible to say which one? If I'm right so far, that is B)

Edit: Changed subject (Sylvicola sp)

This is probably Sylvicola (Sylvicola) zetterstedti, a female.
