Hello,

I take this picture this afternoon in a woodland near Paris (France).
Its looks like Loxocera sylvatica with orange shoulders but this specie does not seem to have been recorded in France.
I need your help

It has been recorded in France. Just not registered on Fauna Europaea if that's where you were looking.
Phil Withers is currently making a study of the Psilidae of France (partly because so many French species are omitted from FE) and he has helped me compile the French list at http://micropezid...322#France
France has the most species of Nerioidea + Diopsoidea in Europe.
In fact Séguy listed that species in his 1934 Faune de France.

Can I suggest that you try to get it added to the Galerie du Monde des insectes at https://www.galer...ae_01.html. I'm not sure just how to do that, presumably by posting it on the forum first (https://www.insec...) and asking that it be added to their galerie. Let me know how you get on as I've a couple of species that I'd like to upload there and I struggle a bit with the language.

Yes I did. You have to post first a thread like this : https://www.insecte.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=197856
and after they will add it to the gallery.

After login, you go on "index du forum", "diptères", "nouveau sujet" and in the right you click on "télécharger une photo dans la galerie" and then you copy the text and put in your message.

I have the same probleme with language but in English ;-) !
