Tony Irwin wrote: Hydrellia (Ephydridae) thanks Tony. was a similar one last days (first thinking from the author was Dolichopodidae... if remember well). now looking thru the gallery this is very a like Nikita's fly with the ID Hydrellia griseola.... maybe is the same? cosmln Edited by cosmln on 05-10-2007 21:08 |

Could be - Hydrellia griseola is a very common fly of grassland - the larva is a leaf miner in a wide variety of plants.

Hydrellia griseola is by far the most common species - but there are many other, similar species. It is still a rather poorly known genus. Really reliable identification is possible only from male genitalia.

Really reliable identification is possible only from male genitalia. i think this is a male... or? if yes i will try to prepare genitalia and make some photo of that. cosmln |
