Hello !

Is it possible to identify this small fly found near Paris ?
I think this is a Coenosia, tigrina or humilis maybe.
It came into a light trap near a pond.

I only have these two photos :

I would say Coenosia tigrina, based on leg colour and head bristles

Thank you Tony for your quick anwer.

Actually, legs are often black for C. humilis. It is not the case on this photo, that's why I had doubts.

I didn't look at bristles in detail, because I don't know the criteria.

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
