Any ideas about this small (body around 2 mm) nematocera? From a green-house in our garden in south Sweden today.

Regards

Krister

Cecidomyiidae, subfamily Lestremiinae.

(ID changed based on second photo.)

Many thanks John Carr! Is there any key available to this subfamily with only 8 species recorded in Sweden?


Regards

In the british key to Lestremiinae (Mikes Insect Keys) it fits well to a male Lestremia cinerea with "Gonostylus with a two-pointed tooth-like structure at the tip".

I consulted The Wood Midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae: Lestremiinae) of Fennoscandia and Denmark, one of several publications by Mathias Jaschhof on the Lestremiinae and Porricondylinae of Fennoscandia. They are not online as far as I know.

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
