Ochthera mantis - Ephydridae ?
Don Micro
Hello all,

This is Ochthera mantis? Isn't it?
Pic taken in Hasselt, Belgium 21-09-2010.

Thanks!

No, from the dusting pattern on the tergites, I'd say this is Ochthera manicata. Not absolutely certain because there is another similar species - O.palaearctica - which occurs in Denmark and France, so could be found in Belgium, and I have not seen material, so don't know how the pattern compares.

Thanks Tony,

I guess I urgently need a decent checklist for Belgian diptera because I wasn't aware of the other species.

Does anybody know where to get:
Grootaert, P. Bruyn, L. de & Meyer, M. de (eds), 1992. Catalogue of the diptera of Belgium - Studiedocumenten van het K.B.I.N. 70:1-338 ???? Frown

I would like one too...

I have to admit that I was already wondering if Ochthera manicata is actually recorded from Belgium yet. It's not mentioned from Belgium on Fauna Europaea, but that doesn't mean it has not been recorded yet.
I will check the checklist tonight.

On the checklist of Belgium (1992) only Ochthera mantis is mentioned.
