Can this be a Sciapus platypterus, the kind we find the most in Holland, or must it remain a S. spec....? Pictures are made 17-7-2008 in Zeist, Holland hedy2411 attached the following image:  [128.56Kb] Edited by hedy2411 on 03-02-2011 13:42 |

The male of Sciapus platypterus has segments 3 and 4 of mid tarsi white and broadened. If this is a male, as I think it is, it is not of that species. I can't place it in the key to European species. http://www.dipter...p?cat_id=8 |

Hello John, Thank you for your reaction! I see in other pictures what you mean, so this must stay a spec....  Regards, Hedy |
