I think this is a Muscid flly. Please confirm or correct me. Is it possible to give a more precise ID? I still have the specimen and could add info is this would help. Thanks, Martin Martin Cooper attached the following image:  [149Kb] |

Hi, Martin! I am no expert, but I would guess this is Muscina levida. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Hi, Martin! martincito wrote: Here is another photo with the tip of the scutellum more or less in focus... Yes, the pale scutellum tip and the smoothly bent M-vein led me to Muscina and the all black legs to levida. It is very abundant here, too.
