Dear Forum,
Fly caught 1 oct. from dry sandy area at water edge Central Netherlands.
In the Netherlands only Ochthera mantis is listed but others may be around I have no key to check
Any help with ID appreciated,
Kind regards,
Jan Wind

And another
manicata. While I'm fairly sure these are not
mantis, I have never seen
palearctica, which might just turn up in the Netherlands, so it's worth checking the genitalia. I can send Clausen's figures if that would help, or I'm happy to look at any specimens for checking.
