Hello, This thread (http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=16949) reminded me of a fly I saw in June in a forest near Heerlen. I was staggered about the lenght of the ovipositor which even could make some Tephritids jealous. The palps seem to be smaller as the ones in Lonchaea palposa. Ben   |

You'll need Iain to comment for a better informed opinion, but from my limited experience this could be something like Lonchaea tarsata as it has it has the basitarsal segments orange-yellow coloured. Nice photo. Please add to the gallery if Iain can provide a likely ID.

Hi Ben this is not L. fugax which has all the tarsomeres pale, it could be L.tarsata but as I cannot make out the colour of the squammal fringe i cannot be sure ...... Iain Iain MacGowan |
