6.5mm, Clitheroe UK, 19 May 2009. Looks like Tetanocera. Any further? Stephen R attached the following image:  [77.6Kb] Edited by Stephen R on 07-06-2012 22:59 |

I am not an expert, but looks for me like Pelidnoptera. Bare? R1 = Pelidnoptera nigripennis? Frank addition: Hardly to see, But R1 on the averted side seems hairy. which refers to Pelidnoptera fuscipennis Edited by Frank Marquard on 14-10-2011 14:34 |

Frank, I've just found your posting which I missed completely last year - sorry for that. I'm sure you are right on the genus - comletely new family to me. I'll attach a crop from the original photo, which is well out of focus in the critical area. I don't know if we can be sure about the species. R1 doesn't seem to be visible beyond the subcosta.

On the other hand, the photos in the Gallery seem to show different head shapes in the two species, and this one does seem to fit P. fuscipennis better. |
