Found 10 may 2008 Dwarsgracht Neth. Is it possible that it is an old one that lost his hairs..? Ore not Psychodidae at all..? Joke van Erkelens javanerkelens attached the following image:  [87.63Kb] Edited by javanerkelens on 08-02-2009 17:15 |

These are quite rare in collections, so I am not surprised if they are not recorded from Netherlands. They are reputed to suck amphibian blood. |

I got some specimens from a Dutch Malaise trap today, including a male.
