South Norway on pile of logs
8th August. 2021

Small one about 3 mm
I posted this last year as well and
Tony Irwin suggested Catharosia pygmaea

I just checked my specimen again against key, and for me, the calypters doesn't look that narrow, but that might just be because I am inexperienced?

Is it Catharosia pygmaea?

Yes this is Catharosia pygmaea.

Nomen non omen: albisquama is much smaller !
