Yes, definitely. At a later stage I will try to put a name on it, but I do not have the right books at hand.

Thank you Paul, and also thank you for Micropeza corrigiolata. I have too bad photo to send it, but I wandered who is it too. Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

It's a male of Dolichopus simplex. The name, simplex, is well chosen: the males of this species lack the modifications seen in most other species of the genus. Typical characters for simplex visible in the pic include pale postocular finge, pale legs with single preapical setae, simple costa and the color of antennae: 1st segment all yellow, 2nd mostly black with yellow at base & in middle, 3rd segment all black.

Okay, that may save me the trouble. Did you use the Stackelberg key in Bei-Bienko, by the way?

1. Jere and Paul, thank you very much, I never hoped that small Dolichopodidae may be identified till species by photo. 2. If the question about Stackelberg key in Bei-Bienko is to me, than the answer is no. I just get only subvolum with Nematocera and ORTHORRHAPHA without half pages. And as I deal with insecta only few month, this book in most cases is still too difficult for me. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
