1 august 2008, The Netherlands, Kiersche Wiede. In wet habitat. L. lutea or bifurca? And what features do we need to see for an id? With best regards, Klaas Klaas attached the following image:  [130.86Kb] |

Looks like Lonchoptera lutea to me. The male genitalia of L. bifurcata look totally different. Furthermore the males of L. bifurcata are not often found (which is a non-argument I admit). As far as I know no males of L. bifurcata have been found in The Netherlands yet.
