Hello, Could this be a Rachispoda sp. ?? I think it is a Sphaeroceridae due to the long arista and the short and enlarged first segment of the posterior tarsa. Then the wing venation looks like a Limosininae to me. If right up to there, then it should be either Leptocera or Rachispoda… And I think I see two or four antero-dorso-central setae curved toward the middle in the front pictures, which would be the criteria for the latter, isn’t it ? If necessary I’ve got other pictures, maybe to come to the species… (it is not forbidden to fantasize…). So thank you very much for your help; and if anybody can come to any kind of ID, it would be wonderful to specify which criteria on the pictures lead to this conclusion! Thank you anyway! 31/1/2013, Vevey, Switzerland, on a wood fence in a little wood Size: 2.6 mm (body), 2.3 mm (wing) Caillou attached the following image:  [52.64Kb] |
