Scatophila species - looks like a female. Not easy!

Yep. The collected flies are Limnellia - I think stenhammari, but this is not a British species. The Scatophila are distinguished by the costa only extending to R3+4, not to vein M. There are a few species with this Limnellia-like thoracic pattern. Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |
