Coenosia is correct. I don't think it is C.mollicula. Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Another try... But I must say, that I always get confused by those ..av+ad+pv+pd on the legs, after 20 times looking, I see hairs everywhere.... Oke...I think now that it could be Coenosia rufipalpis (Meigen 1826) Keep trying.....Joke |

Dear Joke, it is female, so it is difficult even with specimen. As for me, I can't say more. My advise: during first steps whith key's ID, try to start with males. The best - with a seria of males.

I can't say more The fact that I can't say more doesn't mean that your ID is wrong, it well may be Coenosia rufipalpis. By the way, soon you will get this experiens - when your ID is correct and everything perfectly fit, you will be sure that your ID is correct without anybody's confirmation. Best wishes, Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
