Is this Eccoptomera filata? If I understood correctly, E. longiseta should have a red-brown third antennal segment, which I don't see here, so I went for a different species. But there are other species I don't know how they look like.

Vienna, mid October

Coming back to this specimen, my ID is solely based on a 1932 paper, regarding the statement that longiseta has a 'red-brown 3rd antennal segment'. I would call the color here rather yellow or light-brown. In the gallery, both species seem to have darker antennae then my specimen, but don't know whether these are light effects.
Any key for this genus available?
Cheers, Lorin

Great, I now worked with his monography and used chaetotaxy instead of color descriptions. Can confirm E. longiseta.
