For questions concerning non-dipteran insects use the subforum "Other insects, spiders etc.", please. Hymenoptera experts will not see your thread here. I am not sure if these sawflies are Tenthredo notha, because the scapus is black. T. arcuata might be another option, but I would like to know an expert's opinion. Regards, Sundew

You will not find them in flies. And flies have two wings, wasps have four. Don't worry, you will soon be able to tell them apart. I think only the administrator can move the threads, but you could post the same again. The number of threads in this subforum is limited. If you read that no new threads are allowed at the moment, try another day.
