Hello, (Click on the picture to get a better resolution. Click again on the picture to come back.)  Pierre Duhem : France : Saint-André-d'Allas : 24200 : 29/07/2008 Altitude : 270 m - Taille : 5-6 mm Réf. : 235812  Pierre Duhem : France : Saint-André-d'Allas : 24200 : 29/07/2008 Altitude : 270 m - Taille : 5-6 mm Réf. : 235813 evdb pointed me to the Lauxaniidae, but I don't find such short yellowish wings. More, The ptilinal suture is still rather open. And what do you think about four ocelli ? Thanks in advance for any help. Edited by pierred on 21-07-2019 08:20 Pierre Duhem |

I don't see dorsal preapical bristles on tibiae and I do see something black sticking out of the rear end. I think Tephritoidea. |

Lonchaeidae, thinking of Earomyia

According to FE and INPN, there is a single species in France, Earomyia bazini (Séguy, 1932).

I think this is a Dasiops: lunula seems to be with setae, vibrissa present (although visible only on one side). And certainly there are more Earomyia species in France, just they are unrecorded.

OK, Paul. As always, nowadays, Fauna Europaea is only taken as an information source, not as a proof. Pierre Duhem |

It looks like a female Dasiops at this size most probably a female D. latifrons. The French Lonchaeidae were reviewed by Withers & MacGowan (2014) and the most up to date and accurate distribution maps can be found at Lonchaeidae online. Dasiops latifrons map is at http://lonchaeidae.myspecies.info/category/lonchaeidae-classification-and-species-info/lonchaeidae/dasiopiniae/dasiops/dasiops-latifro Iain MacGowan |
