In Portuguese Mosquito/Mozzie is.... mosquito! Smile Gnat is also called Mosquito. We have not special words for all flies. awkward Specially gnats, midges, mosquitos .... in Portuguese, the common name is the same for midges, gnats, mosquitos: mosquito (a big mosquito and "boring" is called melga). [One person that harass a lot it calls a "melga" (?s uma melga! = you are a "melga"Wink] Smile

Hello,

With the ending of the front tibia, would it not be rather a Dilophus sp.?

I?m not sure, pierred.

Jorapavi - Chrysopa perla is not diptera.. (it is Neuroptera > Chrysididae)

Hi Pierre


What you think to be the tibia 1, is actually femur 1.
Tibia 1 is hardly visible.
It's a Bibio alright, Dilophus is much less hairy.

Chrysopa are not Chrysididae (Hymenoptera), but Chrysopidae Smile

In Spanish are very few common names for insects, only in the butterflies.

I agree with Dilophus, more than Bibio...

Thank you to all for the interesting information

I know, isidro! Smile
It was a misspelling! I was, really, thinking in Chrysopidae, but I have written Chrysididae. Smile

I have seen almost all families of Neuroptera known for Europe. I saw Chrysopidae, Nemopteridae (beautiful!), Hemorobiidae (not usual to find them...), Myrmeleontidae.
Perhaps I have spotten Ascalaphidae, but not sure. Smile
I never found Mantispidae (one of my favourite!) and Osmylidae. Sad

he he, I win you

I've found Myrmeleontidae (at least 5 species, but this summer I looked for Palpares libelluloides and I don't found it Sad ), Ascalaphidae (only one species, not very common but not very rare), Nemopteridae (only one species, I am eager to found the other three Iberian species, but in my zone don't exist), Mantispidae (one into my house!!! and other a few days ago, a friend give me one), Chrysopidae (the only family really common), Hemerobiidae (not very rare), Coniopterygidae (difficult to see), Osmylidae (only one exemplar, many years ago, caught by a Neuropteran specialist who carried it to my city) and Dilaridae (one exemplar at night light in a camp), and also in the other "neuropterans", Sialidae (many exemplars in only one place and day, many years ago) and Raphidiidae (only one adult many years ago in a camp, and gew days ago, various larvae)...

I never found Sisyridae, Neurortrhidae and Inocelliidae...

(I apologize for bothering you Pfft )
 
jorgemotalmeida
Raphidiidae... is not Neuroptera Pfft but it is now recognized as a proper order: Raphidioptera Wink I spotted it too.
if you want to continue this thread better to put this subject in NON-DIPTERA .
Hey, remember, this is not a challenge Pfft
