Hello,

again the question, correct or not, and if not, can someone correct me? The speciman was attracted by light.

Location: Germany, Rhineland-Palatinum, 53572 Unkel, river Rhine valley, Stux hill, dry and warm habitat (grapeyards), 14. 06. 2015.

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Hmmm I think X. pedissequum but not sure. Jürgen have reason: there is a complex of three species: X. pedissequum, X. dives, and X. stackelbergi
