This is a female. The female of Bibio marci should have almost black wings, not translucent, if my observations are correct. Also marci is a relatively early species as suggested by the name, and is most abundant from late March to early May. Gabor Keresztes Japan Wildlife Gallery Carpathian Basin Wildlife Gallery |
