This Clusiid was collected in a malaise trap in the North East of the Netherlands between 10 and 16 of May.
Can anyone tell me more about the genus and/ or species, or direct me to literature to identify them?
Greetings, Gerard

Clusioides, and, IMHO,
Clusioides ruficollis Meigen, but I am not, in fact, a specialist...

Hi Gerard,
You could try:
"Stubbs, A.E., 1982. An identification guide to British Clusiidae.? Proceedings & Transactions of the British Entomological and Natural History Society 15: 89-93."
