Hello,


I photographed this 6.5 mm long Macrocera near Lyon (center-east of France), in a low-altitude (400m) hill with forest, meadows and glades.
It was inside a "caborne", a little stone structure which served as a shelter for farm workers.

It was suggested it could be M. longibrachiata due to the darkened tergite's extremities.

What do you think? I don't have any other pics unfortunately.
