Hello!
Found yesterday in the garden (northwest Germany). With these pics I understand the name
spinipes (thorny legged) :). Is it a female (swollen abdomen with eggs)? Thanks in advance!

Second picture.
I forgot: length about 6-7 mm.

You are right with the genus, I think with the species too, but there is another species (N. tipularia) that I don't know.

Thanks! According to my checklists there is only this species in genus/subgenus
Norellia in Germany. There are only six or seven additional species in subgenus
Norellisoma (but no
N. tipularia).
