Hello, Here is a Tipula found in march 2023 in the South of France (Canohès 66680 - Pyrénées-Orientales), altitude 100m. The white band behind the brown costal cell indicates the subgenus Tipula. It has 13 antennal articles ==> Exit paludosa. It flies in march ==> exit subcunctans. So, it is probably the common species Tipula (Tipula) oleracea, but It could also be a rarer species which could be present here such as mediterranea, orientalis or plumbea ? Are there any reliable criteria for determination between these species that could be visible in this photo?
