Hello,

a 4 mm male from today in our courtyard (northwest Germany). Protoclythia rufa?

Hi Jürgen, I think it's difficult/impossible to tell the male Protoclythia rufa from Paraplatypeza atra based on your photo - without seeing frons or hind leg. Hopefully a real expert can...

Thanks, Eric! P. rufa is common here, but I never found P. atra. So perhaps with a 'cf.'...?
Best regards,
Jürgen

I think, both are possible based on the wing veins.
Paraplatypeza likes Pluteus cervinus, Platypeza sp. Armillaria - perhaps that helps?

I'm afraid I know nearly nothing about mushrooms... awkward
