26 April 2008, The Netherlands, Meppel In damp forrest on the bark of Fraxinus exelcior. About 50% larger than some common ones like T. oleracea. This is probably a common species to. Any ideas? Best regards, Klaas Klaas attached the following image:  [145.72Kb] |

If it wasn't for the size I'd say T. lateralis but AFAIK it's about the same size as T. oleracea. Perhaps someone else can shed some light.  |

The two pointed lobes on the ninth tergite does indicate in the Tipula (Yamatotipula) group, thus Tipula lateralis would be a good fit. |
