I had this male Bibio 13:th of may. Southern Sweden. Not sure if it's B. marci or clavipes, or perhaps something else? Any suggestions? Martin maroo attached the following image: [263.65Kb] Edited by maroo on 17-11-2017 21:30 |

Rather a male Dilophus.

Thanks Paul Dilophus seems much better :-) The most reported species in Sweden seems to be Dilophus febrilis (and also some D. femoratus). I can't find any good pics of how to seperate males of these species, but maybe some one here knows that! Greetings Martin |

You can separate the males only by genitalia and very subtle spine features on front tibia. Theo |
