Netherlands, today

Tried to use https://www.royensoc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Vol09_Part05.pdf, but feel like it does not fit this species.

Update: named by Marc Pollet as a possible M. veles.

"Clearly belongs to the M. jacula - veles group (big proboscis), no 4 big dorsocentral, wing veins also fits this species and the tibia are obviously lighter coloured as the femur"
