Here are two similar tephritidae (perhaps genus Tephritis?) that I collected recently, in May 2006. The one on the white sticky trap in a citrus orchard and the one on a leaf was captured on a Celtis australis leaf, both near Valencia, Spain. Any help or suggestion will be welcome. |

Hi Ferran, Both look like Tephritis alright, though I have some doubts with the second one. I will need my collection in order to say more about it, so I'll have to get back to these. Best wishes, John |

Hello John, Thanks for looking at the very puzzling, at least for me, Tephritis. I have really had a hard time loking at similar pictures in keys, but this hyaline spots on the wings look all the same to me. I wait for your answer. Ferran |
