Size 2-3mm. May 08, 2006, Bekasovo-1 Station, Naro-Fominsk district, Moscow region, Russia. Once spotting me, they started to run like hell in all directions. The best results of the chase are presented. |

Different species. The first could be Lotophila atra (I will see if I can make this more certain), the second I expect is a species of Leptocera s.l.

According to Dr. Rohacek, the first fly: "Crumomyia ? fimetaria (Meigen, 1830), male. This is a woodland species often found on decayed fungi. Although I cannot see all necessary features, the identification is probably correct". the second one: "Spelobia (Spelobia) sp., female. Unidentifiable to species but probably other than S. clunipes". Edited by Dmitry Gavryushin on 26-07-2006 09:51 |
