Ablabesmyia

I forget if European females are determinable -- I do not have my books with me.

Thanks John
We have in Finland three species: longistyla, monilis and phatta.

I don't think they are separable - certainly Fittkau (1962 - Die Tanypodinae) does not mention any differences between the females.
