Hello, Orseolia!

Many thanks for your very interesting informations! I knew that Cecidomyiids have a diverse biology, not only producing galls, but even parasitoid or predatory. But I never read of this way.

there are at least two European species : X. aestevalis and X.nigritarsis.


In my "Entomofauna germanica" (1999) there is only nigritarsis listed for Germany.
