Hello, everyone Any chance to ID those smallish flies, sitting on an asparagus shoot ? Without being absolutely certain, I think I see them regularly on that plant... Heron, Belgium, June 6th. Thanks in advance for your help Philippe Philippe moniotte attached the following image: [123.97Kb] A beautiful hypothesis can be slain by an ugly fact. www.entomopix.eu |

Anthomyiidae. Larvae of at least one species of Delia feed on Asparagus. I can't ID to genus from the picture. |

Could it be Delia platura ?
