Hello, I had a Loxocera albiseta in the forum a while ago : http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=884#post_3243 This one from last week (Brunssummerheide) was half as big, but when I use the key of van der Goot / van Veen it can only be one of the bigger Loxocera's. The only two possibilities are L. albiseta (again) or L. aristata but they should both have a (mostly) black abdomen. So now a do have a key but still no name for the animal.

Hi Nikita, In van der Goot / van Veen it says that in L. fulviventris the third segment of the antenna is much longer then the arista. My fly doesn't seem to have that. I meanwhile think it is L. aristata which, according to this key, rarely can have a bit of brown (in this case a lot of red) at the side of the (normally black) abdomen. Thanks anyway, Ben |
