Moscow region, 14 sept, 5-6mm. Regarding fly's abdomen I decided that I damage fly, but afterwards I found that row of spines on ventral side of abdomen is OK for Blondelia. Correct? Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Hi Nikita Difficult to tell from this angle, but it is consistent with Blondelia nigripes. If you see a clear saw-like ridge on the belly with spines, you should be OK Theo |

I didn't risk a guess because I couldn't be sure of the orientation of the apical scutellars (and most other key features, like leg bristles, face etc).  Theo: How many species have the "saw-ridge" on the sternites? I only found it in Compsilura concinnata here. Edited by ChrisR on 15-09-2006 10:22 |

Thank you Theo and Chris. 1. Scutellar ap short and thin, crossed. 2. I tried to make photo of ventral part of abdomen, it isn't easy task. Ventraly rings 3,4 look somehow open and like two dorsal part of crocodile! Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
