Hello!

Two other small species from yesterday here in Germany. The first one was about the size of Sepsis sp.. Is it Sepsis sp.?

The second, a couple, was about the double size. I found them on a Fraxinus tree trunk. Perhaps Callopium (Lauxaniidae) again?

Thanks for any hints!
Best regards,
Jürgen

Your sepsid is indeed Sepsis. The marking in the wing does leave no other option here.
The second, I really could not tell with any certainty. My impression is that is not Calliopum but a cannot give and clear specifics why.

Even of that I cannot be certain.
