Review of old - and often bad - pictures. This of Aywaille (Belgium) 4/5/2008. I guess female of Cricotopus sp, perhaps Cricotopus cf tremulus ? Right ? Eric Steckx |

If the white color is confined to the second tarsomere the species should be Cricotopus pulchripes according to Hirvenoja's revision. If it extends to the third there are three other species from northern Europe.
