SW France last night. Attracted to the light. 2 - 3 mm long. It looks like a female Cricotopus to me, but all I have seen up to now have bicoloured legs unlike this one with its dark legs. Another genus ? Edited by Lippo on 26-08-2020 10:59 |

Could be Cricotopus. Some species have dark legs. |

Not all Cricotopus have bicoloured legs. I think this is probably a Cricotopus female, but there are other Orthocladiinae that can look very similar - finding a male is usually the best idea!
