Hi !

Small midge, 1,5 mm, on windows inside the kitchen 26.11.2015.
Eyes seem hairy, plumose arista, punctuated mesonotum and nice yellow socks.
No idea !

Looks quite similar to this one: http://www.dipter...ost_297187 or this: http://www.dipter...pid=202144.

Yes, I think you are right, I did not remember Milichiidae family.
Thanks a lot.

I think it's not Milichiidae, but Ephydridae. Check e.g. Athyroglossa glabra.
Best wishes, Niels-Jan Dek

Athyroglossa is an option, though the fly does not show the typical posture (very long forelegs pointing forward, see http://diptera.in...pid=124119), and the particular outline of the head in side view is not visible. Here http://www.dipter...d_id=54751 I summarize the characters of A. glabra. The arista is not well seen, but the scutellum seems to be flat, so the species should be OK.

Sternites of my specimen don't look clear.
It looks quite that one.
Some orbital setae bending foreward.
Thanks for helping.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
