Northern Germany, Schleswig-Holstein, Schenefeld near Hamburg, at a wall of a house (near a light for nights); Outsidephotos: kuv, 1st of October 2014. To me it - especially the wings - look like Tipula confusa. Is my idea ok? Please help to get the ID.

This is subgenus Savtshenkia for sure. With the key by Peeters & Oosterbroek (http://ccw.natura..._2016a.pdf) I came close to T. confusa. However, I cannot see the typical comma-shaped white spot in the second basal cell that ist depicted in Figs. F133 and F134. The alternative choice is based on the shape of the genitals. I suppose this is a female, but length and shape of the ovipositor are not recognizable. So the species T. benesignata, T. limbata, T. staegeri, T. alpium, and T. signata remain as possible candidates. Here I am at my wits' end - sorry!
Regards, Sundew

Woow Sundew, thank you very much for your time and effort.
As I have no better shot to see the white spot at the basalcell I have to name it Tipula sp.
Thanks too for the tip to the key by Peeters & Oosterbroek. There are so many details to identify Tipula flies: Great!
Greetings Kuv

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
