Hello, this appr. 5 mm Acroceridae was found near Bitterfeld, Sachsen-Anhalt, Germany on June 15. Could it be Ogcodes zonatus? I would be pleased by an answer! Hans Haleun attached the following image:  [163.75Kb] Edited by Haleun on 18-02-2018 00:20 |

Hello, I think it cannot be determined to a species. Hans |

Dear Christian, no, I am sorry. Because I'm no dipterist I didn't collect it. Hans |

Dear Hans, indeed a very interesting specimen! It would be highly informative to study it in more detail. In my opinion following characters disagree with the O. zonatus hypotheses: the shapes of the band on tergites, the yellowish halter knob and the transparent margin of the calypter (all are quite variable). I would favor O. gibbosus (L.) instead for males of that species this combination would be more typical, only the tibias are unusually dark (also a very variable character  ). To ensure it would be necessary to investigate some microscopic characters.best wishes Raphael Edited by Raphael Weniger on 16-02-2018 21:37 |

Dear Raphael, thank you very much for your informative reply! Yes, the tibiae seem to be very dark in these pictures. I attach another one in that they are a bit lighter. I will privately keep my pictures as Ogcodes cf. gibbosus. Thanks again with best wishes to you, Raphael! Hans Haleun attached the following image:  [249.57Kb] |
