Thanks for correcting me Nikita !

Why albipuncta?

If you do stupid things like me and read halteres but look at the calypters...
It annoys me how often I get it wrong even if I have decent images of the features in the keys :@
It feels like my failure rate increases exponentially with the number of couplets in the key :|

If I key it again in "The Muscidae of central europe" i do get to H. dentipes.

By "Hydrotaea dentipes group" do you mean dentipes in the key should/could be separated into different species ?
