As Paul insist (and I agree with him) I try don't put two different species in one thread. So, this thread is part II of http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=2599#post_11179 Tony Irwin's reply was: "...looks like a Zaphne species (Anthomyiidae), and it agrees quite well with Z.caudata, but so far I only have a couple of species in this genus, so it could be something else."

And I have collected fly. Tony wrote: Keep collecting the specimens - I know the winters can be very long in Moscow, and studying the bristles of muscids and anthomyiids is a great way to pass the time! Now I'm absolutely sure that long winter isn't a problem for me. I spend two hours with this fly. Results: Suwa and Darvas key leaded me to genuses Zaphne and Hydrophoria. To choise between its difficult, but I decided that Hydrophria, but checked both genus. Zaphne caudata has short plumose arista, my fly has long. If it is Zaphne, I think it may be only Zaphne divisa. In Hydrophoria fly according with Hydrophoria albiceps. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
