Dear forum, I took a picture of this fly in my garden today. It has smaller eyes and is less "hairy" than the Bibio lanigerus I photographed earlier today. Is it a different Bibio species? All of a sudden they are abundant in my garden! Best regards, Niek Niek van Wijk attached the following image: [107.31Kb] |

Dear Theo, Thank you. Quite a difference between male and female. Best regards, Niek |

Funny to see how those females (I posted a B. johannis recently) have such big fore femora.
