Hi, Janet! You really find the same species at the same time  I did not post mine (from yesterday), because I was rather sure of Muscina levida (all dark legs; those of yours seem lighter, so better wait for experts).

For Janet : Muscina levida (given the broadly open cell r4+5) For Jürgen : Muscina prolapsa. Stephane. |

The r4+5 cell is where I had thought it was, I think! As marked in red..

Hello, Stephane! Thanks a lot! Stephane Lebrun wrote: For Jürgen : Muscina prolapsa. Uhh... I thought with those completely dark legs only M. levida is possible... (I really have to look more at the wing venation...)

Muscina levida has black palpi and in Muscina prolapsa the palpi are yellow ... |
