Hi Philippe..I had one that looked very similar with the blue marking on the head which turned out to be Syntormon pallipes...Igor or Stefan will give a more measured reply though. |

Hello Roger, Thanks for the reply. I looked it up in the gallery, and I'm a bit doubtful really. The antennae don't look right to me, nor does the legs' colour. Here is a different angle of the same fly. Philippe Philippe moniotte attached the following image:  [83.31Kb] A beautiful hypothesis can be slain by an ugly fact. www.entomopix.eu |
