Hi,

I have photographed this insect in Asturias (Spain), mid-August. Alt. 1400m asl.
Body length around 5mm (without the "feathery tail".
Do you have any idea about its identity?
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
FRV

Thank you very much Günther. There is a strong sexual dimorphism!

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
