Nobody?

There are only 6 species in Belgium and I don't have a key nor clue. :|

Unfortunately the first couplet in the (British) key depends on whether there is an anteroventral bristle on the distal half of t2, and this requires a different viewpoint :| I think the choice here is between L. furcata (av) and L. lutea (no av).

OK, I can live with that. :)

Thanks Stephen.

Using the Czechoslovak key it easily keys out as L. lutea.

What are the distinguishing features, Paul?

In relation to the resembling species, I think most notably the absence of a pd on T1 and black inner vertical setae.
