Hello pengie, This is not S. batava. Surstylus of S. batava is not broadly shouldered. It looks like S. scripta. Surstylus broad and without tooth. However, the left ssurtylus seems to have a tooth in the middle. Maybe you can upload a dorsal image of the surstylus. Please also mention locality and date of collection. Greetings, Ectemnius |

Sorry, we found this one in april 2014. Thank you, i will have a look for the Surstylus when i'm in the lab next time. Do you think the length of the abdomen in proportion to the wing is ok for scripta? |

Littlebit hard to say, but yes, also abdomen looks o.k. for S. scripta. |
