Hello, I think this is Sepsis punctum: reddish front part of the abdomen and yellow-red legs. Is this correct? pierred attached the following image:  [146.14Kb] Pierre Duhem |

Hi Pierre. With such a good quality image you don't need to care about colour of leg and abdomen, which is not bad patterns to ID, but not always 100% reliable. On your photo is clearly visible that there are only one pair of dc setas. In Europe it may be only one species - S. punctum. I add my yesterdays photo of Sepsis cynipsea, you can see, that it has 2pair dc setas (marked 1 and 2).

Hello, Thanks to both of you. Nikita: Obviously, you have more documentation than I have. I'm only a newbie in dipterology and I don't find any accessible documentation. I'm actively waiting for the English version of the book mentionned in this thread : http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=11&thread_id=886 Pierre Duhem |
