found on 2014-06-08 in a forest near Marburg on a swampy location. Is it Diastata adusta?

Hello Pristurus,

Following Chandler 1987 I come to a different conclusion. It certainly is not D. adusta. It has dark femora and darkened parts on the tibia.
Using the key I come to D. vagans. Diagnosis: Cross-vein dm-cu distinctly clouded, distinct dark costal border reaching r4+5. Mainly grey dusted species with yellow legs.

Greetings,

Ectemnius
