A clearing with Chamaenerion and Rubus in a mixed forest (mostly Picea), small brook nearby. Size 6.5 mm.

Riponnensia (formerly known as Orthonevra) splendens? I would have to check with keys, which I don't have around here... so: good luck :)

Many thanks Andre, although I doubt it's O. splendens (3rd antennal segment isn't shortly oval). With yellow knees, 1st tarsal segments and basal parts of tibiae and ta w/o brown border, maybe O. intermedia?

Probably a female Orthonevra intermedia, but from this picture it could also be Orthonevra stackelbergi!
Greetings,
