You don't want to reed "Anthomyiidae female"? Sorry. This nice fly (another species of same genus, I think) I've met last october in Sochi region, females only, alas. Someday I'll found answer...

I wonder if they are also related to Juergen's 'nice little fly' from http://www.dipter...ad_id=7637 - look at the white mark on Pierre's first pic - is it dusting that disappears depending on the angle one views the fly, or is it an artifact or reflection? Susan |

Hello, I think the white stripe at the base of the thorax is real (not an artifact or a light reflexion) on Nikita's pictures and on my own ones. Pierre Duhem |

Coming back to http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=7954 Today I collected attached fly. This Anthomyiidae emale is possible to ID, it has long plumose arista (as well as fly from Sochi at least). This fly is Hylemya vagans/nigtimana Nikita Vikhrev attached the following image:  [112.05Kb] Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Nikita, Are you sure that the last photo is the same as the former one? It seems that the general colour of the thorax is much different... Pierre Duhem |

Not Peirre, I'm not sure, but I know where to search now! In your case it may be useless if species not collected  We have to know at least: 1. Is arista as long plumose as in cases N 2 and 3? 2. If yes, is lower squama projecting? Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Nikita, Nikita Vikhrev wrote: Not Peirre, I'm not sure, but I know where to search now! Fine. Keep us informed. Nikita Vikhrev wrote: In your case it may be useless if species not collected I don't collect. No time, no material, no space to store, etc. Pierre Duhem |
