From an old gravel pit in moraine land with lots of Salix and other broadleaf species, and some moist low vegetation. Galgehøj, Skanderborg Nord, Denmark, 2nd May 2019.

Thank you - looks convincing (other spp registered in DK are dispar, grisea and nudigena). Karsten |

If it is Macquartia, it must be tenebricosa. Not all Macquartia features are visible, but the hairs on the back of the head seem all black, that narrows it pretty much down ! Theo |

The photo material is very limited, but here is an entirely untreated cut of the head. I can not add more info than this, regrettably. |

Inconclusive. Still, it agrees with Macquartia tenebricosa. |
