Here we have photos of two specimens. I believe they are the same species because they parasitized the same host species (Thaumetopoea pityocampa). I think it belongs to Compsilura concinnata because of the following characters: hairy eyes and yellow palps. Am I right? location: Barcelos, Portugal date: 2007/12/27 specimen 1 (photos 1 and 2) specimen 2 (photos 3 and 4) 1  2  3  4
