Hallo, everybody again.

This time I think the quality of my photo is not good, but the orange stripes on the abdomen, when the insect took the wings beside, were so striking, I never noticed before. And I am shure, somebody of you will therefore know the insect. From searching the gallery I think it is Nephrotoma crocata.

Southern Germany Baden W?rttemberg near Tuttlingen
2008 June 8th
in bushes near a pool
Length, like allways very rough: 2 - 3 cm????

(I am not quite shure, but I think I saw this one some days ago sitting on a leaf on the surface of the water of the pool. Is that possible?)

Thanks for your help, but I think this time my photo should not be submitted.Sad

You thought right, Nephrotoma crocata, female.
Best regards,
Andre

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
