Hello! Three larger Empididae from yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany). The first one (or are the two different species?) looks a lot like Empis tesselata. Size about 10-12 mm. But is it tesselata? Maybe the first indivudual is no Empis (no forked vein)? At first I thought this other one (both pics show the same individual) was the same species, but now I'm not sure anymore... http://www.foto-u...lata_2.jpg http://www.foto-u...lata_3.jpg Juergen Peters attached the following image:  [28.07Kb] Edited by Juergen Peters on 28-04-2007 17:01 Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Hello! This one looks a bit different with its mostly red legs and was a little bit smaller (ca. 8 mm).

Hi, 1 - Empis tessellata (please note a misprint in your version). 2 - Empis opaca (female). 3 - most probably your identification is correct. All the best, Igor |
