Hello,
I've found this little one (3mm) on Foeniculum .
Is it Paracraspedothrix montivaga ?
Is it possible to tell if this is a male or a female ?
I do not know if Paracraspedothrix montivaga is recorded in Belgium (not listed on Observations.be), but it is noted relatively common on Waarneming.nl

Spa, Belgium, 25-09-2009.

Thanks
Christine

Well, obviously we have little to go on, but it seems OK to me!
Paracraspedothrix was supposed rare in NL, untill many records popped up on waarneming.nl. It is typical for grasslands.

Sexes are very similar in this species. This might be a male.
