Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Lonchaea chorea? (Silba cf. fumosa(male)

HI Mucha

I am struggling a bit with both the male and female images . They are both think Lonchaea specimens (although I cannot entirely rule out Silba fumosa). There are however several species with the combination of all black legs and pale calypteres - , of these L. chorea is perhaps the most common but I cant rule out other species especially from eastern Europe. Happy to look at the specimens if you still have them

best wishes ............ Iain
