Hello,

I can't find a similar light coloured Scatopsid in the gallery. Or is it teneral? About 3.5 mm, at housewall (northwest Germany). There were also many typical black Scatopsids on the wing in the last days.

Not everything posted in the forum also went to the gallery! See http://www.dipter...;pid=77922. In http://insecte.or...p?t=133503 the distinctive characters are highlighted. I found the species today as well. I am quite sure yours has also the yellow antenna base.
Regards, Sundew

Hello Sundew,

that looks convincing. Many thanks!

Did you take any photos today? If you did, you can put one into the gallery Wink. I'm sure, they will/would be better than mine. awkward
Best regards,
Jürgen

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
