Sympycnus? I'm largely going by elimination: It's not Sciapodinae (in Europe they have M forked), Diaphorinae (they lack prepical bristles on femora), Dolichopodinae, or Hydrophorinae (dull colored and/or m-cu near wing margin). Rhaphium is superficially similar but has an apical arista. Campsicnemus has face narrow in middle. Edited by John Carr on 14-01-2014 01:47 |

Dear ... Pristurus, I don't quite understand the question: your movie has already the correct genus name on it, "Sympycnus", and I can tell you that this female specimen most likely belongs to either S. desoutteri (syn. S. annulipes, S. pulicarius), or - less likely - a closely related species. Cheers, Marc |
