Found this one in my apartment 09.08.2011. Think it's Nephrotoma, is it possible to identify from photos? Size is 14 mm.

Thank you for identification. I only need to mail permission, not photos? It's ok for you to use them.

I don't really know much about Nephrotoma, what's the identifying charachters for this species (in short)? Only found info on distribution (and altitudes recorded at). This one was found at 67 degrees north, close to the coast.
