Last week I found a beautiful sawfly in de Krang, an area in the south of the Netherlands I investigate almost every day. I still don't know the name of this sawfly although I went back twice and searched for many hours.
Is it possible to give this sawfly a name from photo's? (I took one sawflay with me so I can take detail-pictures if necessary).
Thanks for your help.

Because the animal seems to be rather small, I'd suggest Tenthredo zonula (see http://www.rutkie...%2005.html and more pics on this website as well as

Thanks a lot Sundew! This sawfly is also about 6 mm long as mentioned on the german forum so I suppose you're right.Smile
