Hello Dipterists,
I am venturing into Sciomyzidae now and have just keyed out my first specimen, using Rozkosny's Fennoscandia key. How have I done - is the fly below Tetanocera? I make it T silvatica, but some of the key charcaters are hard to be sure about without comparative material, so it's very hard to be sure of the ID.

Did anyone have an opinion on this? Comment gratefully received.

Definitely Tetanocera. Large, reddish specimens are usually
T. robusta but colour is not a reliable character.
