Assistance with German key
kitenet
Feel rather embarassed Shock to be asking this, given the excellent English on this site displayed by so many people from so many countries, but could someone help me with a translation of this excerpt from a German key to lacewings:

"Sehr markant Spezies; durch die im [the key] angegebenen Merkmale auch eidonomisch stets problemlos zu identifizieren"

It is the word "eidonomisch" that we are particularly struggling with.

Many thanks,
Martin

I think that Eidonomie means external morphology.

Very disctinct looking species: with the help of the characteristics in the key it is no problem to identify by the shape/form.

... or better wait for Frank & Co ... Grin

Thanks for your help everyone, and congratulations to Uncle Kahis (it's okay, I didn't have to spend a very long time looking up the definition of "cleified" before I realised what was going on Grin!)
