Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Anisopodidae for ID, N Spain

Posted by Piluca_Alvarez on 22-10-2014 21:43

I think this is a Sylvicola (Sylvicola) sp. but it is the first time I try to ID any of these :( Can it be confirmed? Any chance of telling which species? Or which sex? Any help or input will be most welcome ;)

Found in mixed woodland (mainly chestnut trees and oak) in Asturias, N Spain on 19.X.2014.

Thanks in advance!! :)

I agree with Sylvicola (Sylvicola).

Thanks a lot for the confirmation, John!! :) :)

Any chance of knowing which species is it? Here in Spain, it should be either cinctus or fenestralis. But I am unable to tell the difference :(

S. cinctus, fenestralis or zetterstedti female. Need to dissect it. Please, can I get it for my museum?
