Hallo! This fly was collected today, N-W Russia, Karelia republic, south part. These flies was flying around the plant on the window-sill. I'm afraid they can cause disease of it, but not sure. Can their larvaes be dangerous? akai attached the following image:  [115.36Kb] Edited by akai on 29-08-2014 18:44 |

Yes, Sciaridae. And yes some larvae can be an issue for plants (I've lost many cactus'sprouts thanks to them), especially indoor ones |

The one you posted is a female, and is possible that she already laid eggs.

Thanks for your answer! The plant was replanted, but I don't know can it help or not. Perhaps I'll post photos of male if I find it. |
