Hello Ben Hamers,

Yes! Now the third new species of Chyromyidae this year for the Netherlands. Dick Belgers caught Chyromyia miladae and Gymnochiromyia inermis. Last year I was able to catch Gymnochiromyia mihalyii. Thus I am writing a paper about the Dutch Chyromyidae.
This is indeed Chyromya brittanica Gibbs, 2007, a male! Very nice find and the first from anywhere outside England!

Kind regards,

Ectemnius
I also got records of britannica and inermis. Both were found on the window of our museum. G. inermis also popped up in a Malaise trap.
