I reckon a chloropid, but I'm only trying to look clever. I don't really know. John Bratton |

It does, doesn't it? Merdaria is the other, very similar species. But that species has a distinct dark spot at the implant of the arista. |

Much obliged Anne :: If I look very carefully, I would say a female as well. Nice avatar btw... maybe I should change mine into a smiling one too?  |
