Possibly assimilis or grandis but I would need a specimen to be sure

It's not possible from photos - that's why we need a specimen, assuming I am right with Phorocera

but grandis is extremely rare in the Netherlands and generally has a broader parafacial, so I have little doubt this is assimilis. Theo |
