Moscow region, 13 july, 3-4mm. I think that it is Notiphila. Among Notiphila fly shares charecters of N. stagnicola (wide forehead) and N. brunnipes (black t) Nikita Vikhrev attached the following image: [34.18Kb] Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Hi Nikita Not Notiphila - they always have large bristles on the thorax, and on the dorsal side of the mid-tibia. This ephydrid is in the tribe Discocerinini, possibly Ditrichophora. Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Thank you Tony. Stupid misID. Costa in basal part is so strong in compare site between R4+5 - M, that I regarded it is absence of costa. In my key there isn't Ditrichophora Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

I found that in my key it is Discocerina (= modern Dicocerinini). I've come to Discocerina albifrons = modern Ditrichophora palliditarsis. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
