SW France 3 days ago. About 6 mm long. In a dense hedge.

Assuming that this family is good, I am unable to find even the sub-family. :(

A Blindeliini, possibly male Blondelia nigripes, but without a lateral view ....

Many thanks Theo, |t

No lateral view, but this one showing the venation a bit better.

Venation is not the issue, clearly Blondeliini.

Thanks
