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 Martin Cooper attached the following image: [183.55Kb] |

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. Johanna Edited by javanerkelens on 19-07-2013 20:47 |

Thanks for the ID, Johanna. Here is a photo that may show more detail of the side thorax. Regards, Martin Martin Cooper attached the following image: [181.83Kb] |

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. Johanna |
