Hello Forum,

Today I found two different Dolichopidae near the water.
If you look at the first photo, you can see a crown collembola behind the fly!(and baby's at the bottem...Grin)
The second dolichopidae was the seem sice as the first one.
Now I am not 100% sure if the are both Dolichopidae and knows someone mayby a species?

Ohh..Shock
Thats a nice surprise!!
I rapidly looked it up, to find something of the biological surroundings ? and indeed these flies life at a saline habitat, and eats them algae and leavens etc. near the water.
I had only found so far the Notiphila caudata (not by the water), and I saw no agreements whit it....
Next time I try to take it along( the surroundings), in my sears to ID.

Thanks Joke
