Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Suillia sp.?
#1
Dear flyforum,
I took a picture of this fly, of which I believe that it could be a Suillia sp., today in my garden. It looks like Suillia I photographed earlier this year, but it is much smaller (approx. 3 mm.) and I cannot count on this picture (perhaps because of it's quality) the five dorsocentral setae per row Kahis gave me as a clue in an earlier thread.
Could anyone help me to ID it?
Regards, Niek

no Suillia sp. This is another thing.

Thank you Jorge for your quick reply (within 5 min!).
I hope someone can ID it since, not being Suillia, it will be a new picture in my "garden collection".
Regards, Niek

maybe Tephroclamys rufiventris. or not.

Dear Jorge,
Thank you for your indication.
I have been surfing with Tephroclamys (and Tephrochlamys) rufiventris on the internet and here in other threads. It is quite similar indeed.
Could anyone confirm or further comment on this?
Best regards, Niek
