April 06, 2010, Naro-Fominsk, Moscow region, Russia. Quite numerous among dry grass near water, never saw 'em flying, just running. Male, size around 1.5 mm.

While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

Looks and sounds right. If you have some specimens I can give final confirmation. Stilpon is far from completely known, even in Europe...

Hi Dima,
Paul gave correct identification - S. graminum, with normally developed wings.
All the best,
Igor
