I found this, what I believe to be a form of Fruit Fly in my garden in July of last year, but have been unable to identify it. I am a complerte amature, having just retired, and have developed a keen interest in all things small in my half acre garden in Horncastle, Lincolnshire, England. This is one of a few I may need help with, so thank you all for any you can give in advance Phil Ward philward attached the following image:  [176.27Kb] Edited by philward on 13-01-2013 20:31 |

Hi, Phil! Welcome!!  Your fly is a Tephritidae indeed  Edit the title of your thread and name it Tephritidae for ID, to attract the attention of the experts in this family |

Goniglossum wiedemanni: http://www.dipter...to_id=3371 In the background there looks to be a flower of Bryonia dioica which is the host plant for the larvae of G. wiedemanni. Edited by tristram on 11-01-2013 12:30 |
