Hi! Photo on Finland Kokkola 2 June 2019. Is it possible to get genus for that female? Size 4mm. Thanks for help. Pentti Ketola attached the following image: [71.43Kb] Edited by Pentti Ketola on 15-06-2019 11:04 |

Probably Planetella. The shape and hairs of the flagellomeres put it in supertribe Cecidomyiidi and as far as I know only one genus of the supertribe has more than 12 flagellomeres. |

Only one species of Planetella has been found in Finland. Thanks John! |
