Good morning, I'm not sure if this is a Pegomya winthemi. It was collected in a pan trap situated on a pinewood, in Palma (Majorca).        Thanks in advance, Miguel Ángel |

I presume you have doubt about the shape of the distiphallus (aedaegus, paraphallus), which seems a bit round…. All other components of the genitals seems to fit P. winthemi…. There seems no other palearctic species in which a mistake can be made, so I think the distiphallus could be mistaken by another part. But.....having doubt in Anthomyiidae is very healty! Keep this one as P. winthemi, with a little red flag and try to collect other specimen in the future, to compare with. Johanna |

Once I collect another specimen I will compare them, so I will keep this specimen as a Pegomyia winthemi (?), with doubts. Thank you very much, Johanna. Miguel Ángel |
