This thread on an entomology forum on Facebook has dried up without an answer - has anyone on Diptera.info got any opinions? http://www.facebo...mp;theater Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Thanks, Roger. The link you gave provided the right nudge - they appear to be Thressa, a chloropine with an odd arista. Always trust the instinct of a Shetlander, I say. Happy Whatever it is you celebrate during those exceptionally long winter nights! Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Happy whatever it is you celebrate too Tony. Here we just throw another tourist on the fire to lighten the long dark cold nights..and have a bit of a barbecue at the same time. Hmm..this one tastes like chicken  .......who knew?  |

In stitches once again ROFL  , I should have just got a Roger Thomason "Live on the Shetlands" DVD for Christmas instead of an Eddie Izzard One!
