Hello!

Is this (length 15-20 mm) also a Neoitamus? It hunted yesterday in our garden (Germany). Thanks in advance!

Yes, Neoitamus, either socius or cyanurus. I'd guess socius from what Kahis said about tibial colour in a previous post, but it would be best to catch it to check the distribution of microtrichiae in the first basal cell to make sure.

Thanks a lot - but I'm afraid it's too late for catching... ;-)
