Hi,
does anybody know what this is Trichoceridae?
I often see these on top of straw bales in the morning.
I took the photo on 31 March 2014 Kokkola, Finland.
Size 6mm.

Hi, this is indeed a female of Trichocera, but several species have similar ovipositors so it is not possible to tell the species from what is visible on your photos...
