Berlin- late August - 8mm female
Is this Ectophasia crassipennis? I lost confidence in my ability to separate this from oblonga.
Thank You for your Time and Effort.

Hello Sir Theo, the ovipositor
is the genitalia. I forgot that you use Tschorsnig's work which doesn't include drawings of genitalia. I remember those keys with the angle but that it is not scientific enough for me. I prefer to see the dorsal and ventral view of the ovipositor and the spermathecae.
You can ignore this post. Thanks for trying. Maybe one day and authoritative work will be published.
I wish for you a pleasant day.
