Hello! I have seen the pictures of Kirbya moerens here, but although similar in colouration, my fly looks someway different. Can it be, that all previous Kirbya were males, and mine is a female? (Then also my sightings in former years were males.) Today resting on stone at forest (northwest Germany) at 8-10 ?C, size of a normal house fly (8-10 mm).

Nope, it is the male of Campylochaeta praecox. Kirbya is a more southern species (up to Switzerland / southern Germany perhaps). Theo |

Hello, Theo! Zeegers wrote: Nope, it is the male of Campylochaeta praecox. Many thanks! That is a new species for me... Kirbya is a more southern species (up to Switzerland / southern Germany perhaps). So, the flies in this older thread are not Kirbya moerens, as you suggested at that time? http://www.dipter...ad_id=1431 Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

I don't see the problem, that fly is very different (topcel clearly stalked), so it still seems Kirbya to me. Theo |

Hello, Theo! Zeegers wrote: I don't see the problem I wondered, because you wrote, that Kirbya moerens is a southern species (up to Switzerland/maybe southern Germany). But those photos were also taken here in northwest Germany (edge of Teutoburger Wald).

Ok, I see the 'problem', need to check the literature. Anyway, those are 100 % 2 different species Theo |
