Limnia is correct. It is male, so Limnia sp. (But beware that L. unguicornis is much more common species than L.palludicola:D)

Hi Nikita,

thanks for help.
after Fauna Europaea only L.unguicornis is present in Romania so even only for this reason this is most probable.
so i think this will be L.unguicornis... or only L. cf unguinornis?

Well, 99% L.unguicornis
