Yesterday at Pe?aflor, Aragon, Spain.
Habitat: reed marshes, very near salty endorreic water. But the water in the reed marshes was less salty.
Size: 5-6 mm.
All ideas are welcome ;)

I think Lipara sp. Chlorpidae.

All genus Lipara is not cited in Spain, but habitat and galls in Phragmites found at the zone are identical. Is a species recognizable?

True, the genus is not cited from Spain, but all 3
Lipara are known from Balearic islands (unpublished). It could be any one of them.
