Can anyone help me with the identification of this species. I think it is ovipositing so I assume it is a female. Photo taken in SW Bulgaria in end of June - grassland.
Again, I can't find anything similar on the web. Thank you for your help.

Hello Jonne, thank you very much. I had a look on the internet and it does look very much like Echthistus rufinervis. Thanks again
