Hi, I just wonder if these legs may belong to Hybos grossipes ? July 5.2009 Loviisa, Finland.

I cannot be certain. But you can check for your self: Are the large setae on the thorax yellowish brown, then it is culiciformis; if these are black, then it is grossipes.

Black setae, so grossipes. Thank You Paul :)
