I think it's possible to make out ocelli on this cranefly, which would point towards Trichoceridae. Then, I think it's just possible to make out the 2nd anal vein, which appears to curve downward, which would point to Trichocera sp. Finally, I think both the top and sides of the abdomen have horizontal stripes, which would point towards T. annulata. The only character that I can't make out from these photos is the faint darkening of the cross vein in the middle of the wing. Still, on balance, T. annulata seems to me to be the best option. Is it possible to get confirmation of this? Seen in my garden in Sussex, UK on 24/10/2021. Many thanks, Dylan evdebs attached the following image:  [78.14Kb] |
