Hi,

I take the photo on 3 October 2010 Kokkola, Finland.

Regards Pentti.

Do you think it will be possible to know the species?

I think Pentti wanted to ask whether Andrzej's determination was certain, since E. microps would be a remarkably good record in Finland.

According to my notes there is only 1 more than 50-year-old locality near the eastern border of this species here. And Pentti's region is in the western coeastal area.
