I think this is a male Anthomyiid photographed today in my garden. Confirmation would be appreciated. Is it possible to suggest a genus?

Regards,

Martin

Notopleuron haired it seems...
I think one of the Delia radicum-group.
I don't think Delia radicum, because I can't see no brush of ventral setulose hairs at the base of the hindtibia.
Maybe Delia planipalpis / floralis, but then we need a closer look at the genitals.

Thanks for the ID, Johanna.
Here is a photo that may show more detail of the side thorax.
Regards,
Martin

When I look at the setae on the hindfemur, I still have doubt between D. floralis / planipalpis, but when I look at the hindtibia I only can see 1 av seta and D. floralis should have a row of short av setae......and D. planipalpis only has 1 av on the hindtibia.
So for now I would say: Delia cf. planipalpis.

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
