7mm, Clitheroe UK, 2 July 2011 Last June I had a male P. discrepans (http://www.dipter...d_id=39015). This fly from a month later has similar venation but the parafrontal is much wider. Could it be a female of the same species? Stephen R attached the following image:  [171.61Kb] Edited by Stephen R on 18-05-2012 12:34 |

Stephen, you missed the right turn. It is a female Musca domestica ! Theo |

R4+5 and M meet. How common is that in Musca domestica wings? |

This is not a Muscidae. Phyto was a good suggestion to me.

It is nice to see another pitfall.  Phyto is very likely the right genus. |

Yes, Musca it is not, indeed, missed the stalk. It should be Phyto but it does not look familiar. I have little experience with discrepans / adolescens It is clearly not Ph. melanocephala. Theo |
