Hi, these couples - like some more - were found at Ansbach, Frankenhoehe Nature Park, old deciduous forest, 2020-05-06, and I've keyed these as Bibio reticulatus with transparent wings and dark veins, yellow venter... (Zeegers, Haarto, Verbeke, Loew) I'm a bit confused about the length and density of the male's hairs. Greetings, Eric Edited by eklans on 06-01-2021 11:48 |
