Hi,

found this fly indoors, can it be a Platypalpus?

Cheers,
Lorin

Could this be Drapetis flavipes?

want to bring this thread up again,

I think Drapetis is safe, is it possible to get a species ID here?

Cheers
Lorin

With the pale basal segments to the antenna you may be quite right with flavipes. I am currently looking at many Drapetis (courtesy of a Malaise trap in a quarry near the museum) and I would not mind examining the actual specimen.
