I think Desmometopa, Milichiidae

Sensible thought, I'd say.

Thanks, both of you. I looked at the gallery, but there is only one Desmometopa photo...

So I tried the forum search and there are quite nice photos for comparisons.

Regards, Nadine

Hello Nadine,

The species cxan actually be identified. A male Desmometopa microps, new for Switzerland!
Could I use your photo in a publication I am writing together with Irina Brake?

Kind regards,
