Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Tephritidae Campiglossa misella to confirm

Hi Valery,

in a recent threat (http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=77893) you identified Campiglossa difficilis. I have a quite similar specimen, which might have a little shorter oviscapt. It is from a region where C. difficilis is not known. I identified it as C. misella which seems to have usually a very dark appearance in the winter generation and is much brighter in summer. Can you confirm this as C. misella? (I know, it is not the best picture)
Regards
Piet

Yes, no doubts, a female Campiglossa misella.
