Hi
I am new to this forum.
I have a few species that I need to get confirmed. So here is the first one.
Using Skartveit, 1995 I key this out to Bibio lepidus. However there is this species B. longipes, but it is not included in this key. I also wonder if this is a synonym of B. lepidus (or vice versa).

Lepidus = longipes.

Yours seem to be similar to longipes, indeed.
