Hello,

three individuals of the same species? 5-6 mm, the last one perhaps 6-7 mm. At a forest path (northwest Germany).

Thank you, Theo! That was, what I assumed. But because my last assumed Phorocera was Lypha dubia, I did not dare to express my thoughts... :S

Abdomen much more elongated, third antennal segment much longer…

and I suppose Lypha is pretty much done for this year
