Hi!
I found this pair of Nephrotoma in Puerto de San Isidro, a mountain pass in the border of Asturias and Leon Provinces (N Spain), at 1675 m, in an alpine meadow with Heather, on July the 12th, 2015.
I'd be very grateful if somebody can tell me which species they are. :)
Regards

I'm adding this close-up of the pair's genitalia, just in case it helps...

Hi
I think it is
N. flavescens or
N. submculosa, because of the colour of pterostigma and anatergite. But these are very similar species.
