Hi, I've found this Panorpa male at the so called Duvenstedter Brook, a nature protection area in the north of Hamburg, Germany.
Does anybody have an idea, what the "orange spots" could be?
Am I right with P. communis?

Thanks, Marc

Thanks Tony, I wasn't sure, some can find plenty of similar pics on the net, some say it's fungi, some say it's mites!

Best regards, Marc
