Looks like Nyctia, although the wing is only slightly darkened. |

Yes, it does. I took this picture in the same area only 13 minutes before. https://diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=97940 Thank you Jan. |

Hi, it's most probably a male Nyctia lugubris - although slightly darkened, indeed. But the petiole at cell r4+5 seems to be typical for lugubris. EDIT: It seems to be N. halterata, too (I overlooked it in thread_id=97940): I've tried to find more info about lugubris and found this discussion: https://www.insec...hp?t=87186 Christoophe says "Nyctia haltera n'a habituellement pas la R5 pétiolée sauf une population méditerranéenne." (Nyctia haltera usually does not have the petiolate R5 except for a Mediterranean population.) Greetings, Eric Edited by eklans on 06-11-2020 12:04 |

Thank you Eric. Then I'll tag it as a possible male of Nyctia halterata. |
