Thanks, Theo - of course it is and must sort out this evil picture of vitripennis with no visible black on the left wing...

I currently have some to many photos of these Snipeflies:
Chrysopilus asiliformis, cristatus, Chrysopilus laetus
Ptiolina nigrina
Rhagio conspicuus, immaculatus, maculatus, scolopaceus, vitripennis
and it would be a pleasure to support, if you could use it.

Greetings, Eric

North-west Europe:
DK, UK, Eire, NL, B, Lux and both France and Germany north of the line Paris - Neurenburg.
Stricty mountain species ( occurring on ly above 800 m. asl.) are excluded.

That said, from a practical point of view the cchances are 98 % it eill work all over Central Europe. Only a few Mediterrenean and moutain species are lacking.
But when you cross the Alps, you are on your own Smile
