First impression is female Lypha dubia. Are the apical scutellar bristles weak ? Theo |

My first guess was Lypha dubia but I didn't know that they are on the wing for such a long time - amazing

If You mean the crossed ones, yes they are. Here You have the picture. Me too with my poor knowledge thought that Lypha dubia is early spring species. Jari JariF attached the following image:  [167.8Kb] |

Yes, correct. It is a female, always later (on the average, of course) then males Theo |
