Photographed today in my garden in Holland on poor sandy soil near a small birch and oak forest. Looks like S. stercoraria, but the color is quite off. Anyway any idea as to the identity of this little rascal?

I agree with you, it is female of S. stercoraria, this species is very variable. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
