Hello, is this Dolichopus plumipes, or is ID not possible with just this picture? It looks like there's a dark streak at the mid-tibia? I found it in my garden in the Netherlands on 2 june. Regards, Ramon Ramonv attached the following image:  [75.52Kb] Edited by Ramonv on 24-02-2014 17:11 |

Dear Ramon, You don't have to dig into this paper necessarily: this is most certain D. plumipes as this is the only species of this species group with the brown strike on its mid tibia. The only other species with the plumose metatarsus of the mid leg, D. wahlbergi, does not have the brown strike and has the hind metatarsus partly yellow. D. polleti has not yet been observed in the Netherlands, but occurs in Belgium. Cheers, Marc |
