As indicated on a previous thread I made two tours to Bulgaria this year, principally as a Botanist, but inevitably one cannot ignore the rich diversity of spectacular and interesting insects. I photographed a number of flies on each of the tours and have already posted some images. This Tipulid was attracted to light at Melnik on 29 July. I wonder if it is Nephrotoma crocata but would appreciate confirmation or correction of this from someone more knowledgeable than me. I do have the specimen if it is of any interest. Many thanks Alan. Alan Outen attached the following image:  [97.34Kb] |
