Hello, A Tachinidae found in North of France, Cassel, the 29 july 2015, on a shaded part of a Tree trunk, in a pretty humid area, in a mainly decidious forest Maybe an Admontia seria ? Greetings, Thomas Renko attached the following image: [169.74Kb] |

seems an excellent suggestion. It is likely to be a male, given the antennal length. And than the claws are really short. Of course, 1 ad on tibia 1 and clearly not blanda .... Theo |

By the way, seria is a specialist of TIpulidae living in rotholes in trees. So also the habitat makes total sense. Theo |

Thanks you very much, Theo ! There is indeed a lot of Tipuloidea in this area ! I think I have already seen Dictenidia bimaculata but I'm not totally sure if that was in the same area (?), but I think there might be lots of Tipulidae living on dead wood and in rotholes in this area ! |

There is also Tipula subg. Dendrotipula in wood, don't forget that one ! No all Ctenophorinae. Theo |
