First of all I'm sorry for the very bad quality of the photos. I've made a video to show the typical platypezid behaviour, running very fast on the surface of leaves. The specimen on the video is the same of the photos. I think it belongs to the species Lindneromyia dorsalis, am I right? location: Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal date: 28/10/2010 YouTube Video Rui Andrade attached the following image: [56.7Kb] |

Yes Rui, it is true, it is L. dorsalis. I dindnt noticed this thread, because the word Platypezidae is not in the subject or the text, I am always serching for threads by this keyword, I am sorry I didnt react earlier. I know this behavior from some other species, but I didnt film it yet. I am glad you did! It is good to notice species of the tree or shrub, where platypezids do this movements.

I saw a dorsalis today, indeed running like mad on a leaf of raspberry (Rubus daeus). Pictures: http://waarneming.nl/waarneming/view/71502828 For the pictures above: how do you exclude L. hungarica? |

This female is almost black coloured, the L. hungarica is much more brighter in coloration and also the abdomen is silvery grey colorated with only 20-30% blackish covered areas in L. hungarica.
