found in a meadow in a forest near Marburg, Hesse, 2014-06-07. Is it also a Dioctria hyalipennis? Regards, Ingo Video: https://commons.w...06-07.webm Pristurus attached the following image:  [184.59Kb] My diptera videos: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User %3APristurus/gallery/Diptera |

I would say D. rufipes. D. hyalipennis has "stripe of pale tomentum on pleura complete, with an additional ventral stripe above middle coxa". Libor |

I agree, in Dioctria the antennae are placed on hump, Dioctria rufipes has a very large hump much higher than D. hyalipennis.

Thank you very much. And D. rufipes prefers (here in Germany) the near ground vegetation for hunting, whereas "D.hyalipennis" is mostly found in bushes. Greetings, Ingo
