Hmmm, interesting. If so, I would like to say THANK YOU :D because fumigata is not yet in our list of species. Is there any other possibilities ? I have three specimens of this species.

1. H-mmm, in this case, it seems dangerous to put name by photo :p
2. On the other hand I can't see why E.fumigata can't be in Finland.
3. Well, you have pinned fly and you have Jere. Let us know his conclusion :o

Yes, let's wait a bit. Jere has my mail abouth this one and I believe he will react sooner or later. They have fumigata in Sweden so indeed, why not here. Thank You again Nikita :)

KEEP THIS SPECIMEN!

A very similar female was caught a few years ago from Finland and it remains nameless. With your male (it looks male) we can finally confirm the idenity of this species. It is definitely close to E. fumigata, but quite a bit darker than most central European specimens.

Yes, I will keep it. I think I have three of them, so there is one for You too :D I'm at work now but in the evening I will have a closer look if they are all males. Thank You again.

Good news. The genitalia has now been studied of this specimen and we have a new species in Finland again. :D

Thank You all
