Only a little comment if somebody might be interested: this is being a catastrophic year for insects in Spain, but surprisingly it has been a good year for Ectophasia oblonga :) First time ever that I see it in real life and not once but several times :) No idea how it has been for the species in Central Europe.

And this one is E. crassipennis for me too. I always try to focus in abdomen's shape and avoid colours for the same reason Theo has mentioned (guess from whom I learned that ;)).
