Hi, I wonder if this belongs to Sciomyzidae at all? From very old forest, Loviisa, Southern Finland today. Jari JariF attached the following image:  [101.29Kb] Edited by JariF on 24-07-2008 18:47 |

Hi, any suggestions where to find the key to Dryomyzidae ? We have only four and just two of them are Dryomyza; decrepita and flaveola but without key this will stay sp. forever Jari |

Andrey Ozerov is working on new key. So far I know only an old one and in Russian. D. decrepita has infuscated crossveins, so it seems to be D.flaveola. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

I don't remember dryomyzids having such a row of spines on the hind femora. There is also an old German key for this family: Czerny, L., 1930. Dryomyzidae.? In: (E. Lindner ed.) Die Fliegen der pal?arktischen Region 5(38a): 1-8. Jan Willem van Zuijlen |

Hi Jan. This spines bothered and still bother me too. On the other hand a havn't any other idea instead of Dryomyzidae, antennae look very anti-Sciomyzid. Jari, could you make a couple more images? Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

It is a dryomyzid, but not Pseudoneuroctena senilis rather than Dryomyza. The R1 vein should be hairy on upper surface (like in N. anilis). This species is not common in Finland, but very widespread. Most specimens I've seen were caught in the northern half of the country. Edit. Some sources (like Fauna Europaea) list this species as a Dryomyza. Edited by Kahis on 24-07-2008 12:39 Kahis |

Hi, it's getting interesting Here is an other angle. The R1 is indeed hairy on upper side. It's not visible in picture Jari JariF attached the following image:  [84.72Kb] |

Should I add that Kahis is right? P/D senilis is Fenoscandic species I never collected in my life

My friend and colleague Kaj Winqvist warned me about something odd going on in Dryomyzidae. As usual, he was right This is definitely not Pseudoneuroctena, if the key in the Manual of Palearctic Diptera is reliable. The only dryomyzid genus with such strong setae on hind femur is Paradryomyza. Interestingly, there seem to be no genuine Pseudoneuroctena specimens in MZH at all. I wonder if there isn't some confusion here, either in the generic characters, or in the species list... In any case, I will hunt for the descriptions of the 4 known Paradryomyza species next, and hope we can find a finnish male with intact male genitalis (the specimen in MZH is a female). Cheers, Jere Kahis |

Gentlemen, When looking for a picture of Dryope flaveola I came across this topic... Kahis is right . This is a Paradryomyza!P. spinigera; reported recently form Sweden and Norway but not from Finland as far as I can find.
