Is it possible to determine the exact species of the Scorpion Fly in the attached image?
Many thanks if you can help.
The dark band across the wing points towards Panorpa communis, as does the shape of the hypovalves on the genital capsule (the tip of the abdomen). See this page.
Many thanks for your help and the info you provided the link to.
I've saved the link for future use.
