The Netherlands, Havelte. 16 may 2009. On tree in meadow with work-horses, in dry area. Veins very similar to Rhagionidae, but I doubt this is right.! Klaas Klaas attached the following image:  [127.76Kb] Edited by Klaas on 21-05-2009 08:17 |

I'd say Opetia nigra

The wing venation doesnt fit Opetia. I would say Ptiolina (Rhagionidae s.l.).

In that case it should be Ptiolina nigrina Wahlberg, 1854 ? Klaas Klaas attached the following image:  [126.55Kb] |

IF that is the case, and it might very well be, excellent find ! Ptiolina is supposed to be very rare in NL. Possibly overlooked. Theo |

Yes, definitely Ptiolina however the species of this genus are very poorly defined... In any case, great find. |
