Hi, I have photographed this beautiful pair of green eyes yesterday on a forest pond's edge. I have not been able to take a photo from the side nor the upperside. Loc. 20 km West of Paris. On aquatic plant. About 6-7mm long. Any idea on the identity (or family) of the owner of these green eyes? I know that not much can be seen ... Thanks, FRV FRV attached the following image: [212.54Kb] |

I think subfamily Dolichopodinae. |
