23.10 in the house. Lots of gardens around, some bats and many birds (which are the hosts for the puppipara, rigt?). This is my second encounter with these remarkeble things. Is it possible to identify this? First view: (It is very unique dorsally...) |

Second view: (But it is even weirder latterally! And also very amusing  )This flatness is supposed to be an adaptment to parisitic lifestyle - It's harder to scartch that out this way. Edited by GlassOWater on 28-10-2007 19:30 |

Hippoboscidae. I never saw them alive. Just a friend of mine that showed to me (dead specimens). |

Looks special. It's not Hippobosca and it doesn't look like Ornithomyia, so given the locality Pseudolynchia comes in mind. Theo |

I think Theo and zcuc are right, it seems like P. canariensis would be a good choice. Thanks! |
