A new try for upload the picture here. There are a lot of bugs (Emblethis, Rhyparochromus, Legnotus, Orius…) on the meadow. Therefore I am very interested in the information Phasia sp. or Phasia cf. pusilla or… Maik Hausotte attached the following image:  [102.92Kb] |

Yes, it is in Phasia pusilla-group. I cannot exclude Ph. theodori from these pictures. If you find them again, check the colour of the halter (hidden inder the calypter !) and/or the colour of hairs on gena. Or get a female: ovipositors are large (relatively, of course !) and very different. Theo |

Phasia pusilla or Phasia theodori is great. Thank you very much for your help and the interesting information - I will make sure. Kind regards, Maik |

To be clear: theodori probably is (or was) very rare around Leipzig, but these southern species are racing north at a breathtaking speed, so you never know. Default still is Ph. pusilla. Theo |

Very interesting. I will take a closer look in the future. These photos should now be named correctly with Phasia cf. pusilla. Thanks again for the great help and best regards, Maik. |
