Hi everyone For the second year in a row, I have observed Cephalia rufipes, ulidiidae, exactly under the same circumstances (trapped under the greenhouse ceiling). Checking it on Obs.be and Obs.nl, it appears to be very rare. The interesting thing is that all the records from both countries are along the Meuse valley between Huy and Maastricht (more or less). I wonder what is known of the biology of that species ?
