Found in May in forest (riparian), in Austria. Possibly breeds in cow dung. I could identify it as a Sphaeroceridae, but genus level would be helpful (if possible). Thank you! phalaenoides attached the following image:  [70.4Kb] Edited by phalaenoides on 23-09-2021 16:03 |

The form of the scutellum suggests Coproica. Some species are common in dung. |
