Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Dilophus female

Hello,

I don't know whether my eyes get educated and let me see more of them, or whether the year is exceptionally good for the Dilophus genus...

Anyway, this female shows the spine crown on the apex of the fore tibia as if it was on purpose.

I don't know whether it is possible to identify the species.

Dilophus febrilis, only one with darkened wings.
Always very common, probably you are just paying more attention this year.
