Hello there, SW France, 06/17, body size about 7 mm long. We are confident in the genus, much less in the species. However we found an illustration of a wing that looks pretty similar there. Could it be this species: Dolichopus cuprinus ? Lippo attached the following image: [122.52Kb] Edited by Lippo on 27-06-2019 08:40 |

Dolichopus Dolichopus cuprinus is an American species. Species near D. cuprinus usually have a bronze stripe along the middle of the thorax. The right angle bend in vein M is found in several species of Dolichopus, not all closely related. |
