Hi, Today I saw several small flies sitting on Verbascum leaves, and I suppose they are all Rhinophora lepida. Do you agree? Thanks, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [177.78Kb] |

Ha - I identified a Rhinophorid at last! Thank you, Theo. The flies are much smaller than I expected, and I first thought of an Anthomyiid until I saw the magnified wing venation on the screen. Best wishes, Sundew |
