Hi, this photo is from Graz (Austria), from a cave. About 4mm long.
The subject was jumping around.

Could please someone help me to identificate it?

Yes, I know it's hard to be more specific with these subjects, but it's ok, I wanted to know if the family was right.

Thanks for the confirm.

Regards,

I might be wrong about this, but the antennae are very similar to those of Conicera. It's certainly not Megaselia.

Yes, look like similar, I was looking for Anevrina.

The checklist say:

Conicera dauci (Meigen 1830)
Conicera floricola (Schmitz 1938)
Conicera schnittmanni (Schmitz 1926)
Conicera similis (Haliday 1833)
Conicera tibialis (Schmitz 1925)

Thanks !

Marcello

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
