Dear Sundew
I also vote for Str. longicornis, but I think the other one is Oplodontha viridula. What is the approximate size of that one? about 1.5cm (then viridula) or closer to 3 cm (then O. ornata)?
The egg clusters looks like the one I have seen from Ceratopogonidae and the hebitat may suggest Dasyhelea, but not sure though.
All the best from Amsterdam
