Hi,
This Bibio male I met in a nature reserve east of Berlin on 18 April. The fair thorax hairs look very nice. Could it perhaps be the partner of the female of thread http://www.dipter...post_95387?
Thanks for help, Sundew

While sending you a message you were already busy with identifying this male! So I was right, it is the male of that big female. I saw several of them, they didn't seem to be rare.
Many thanks indeed, dear Theo.
