Hi Juergen Looks to me like one Sundew had ID'd as Coenosia agromyzina by Nikita. http://www.dipter...ost_136883. Could be wrong AGAIN though . But then again..I might be right.. Roger |

Many thanks, Roger! That really looks rather similar. I did not think, this tiny fly could be a Muscid.

This really seems a weird one with its very long antennae (I've seen comparable only in Lauxania cylindricornis) while the general appearance really brings Muscidae to mind. Coenosia agromyzina should have shorter antennae, shouldn't it? |

Coenosia agromyzina should have shorter antennae, shouldn't it? Not necessarily short. Jari JariF attached the following image: [141.56Kb] |

The antennae are rather elongated on C. agromyzina (as long as frons). I agree with C. agromyzina.
