Hi all,

again a Bibio sp. as I think. The pic is quite mediocre, but is a more exact specification possible?
Found in D, Northrhine-Westfalia, near Siegen, forest, 380 msm; 2011-04-25.

TIA Christian

A totally black-haired male should be Bibio marci...

That was also my first guess, thanks for the determination!

Best,

Please also note the black costal cell, transparent in leucopterus

Very useful in the field.
