Hello,
I found this cranefly yesterday on the railing of a bridge over a small river in a park in Germany, Saxony (altitude 350 m).
I think it might be Tipula (Yamatotipula) lateralis. Another possibility would be T. montium. Is a species ID possible?
Greetings,
Marion

Hello Marion,

yes, I would say lateralis.
Best regards,
