Hello,

Following the Séguy's key, my guess is that this Dioctria could be a D. atricapilla ...


What do you think about this guess ?

Loire Atlantique, western France, June 13 2015.
about 9 mm ...

Pretty sure you are right! It is a very dark legged one. (Edit) That sounds silly : ) what i have written. What i meant is that this is Dioctria hyalipennis with very dark legs

Looking at another view of this robertfly I was now actually asking myself "couldn't it be D. hyalipennis rather than D. atricapilla ?" judging by comparison with pictures of a french gallery's entomo forum ...

So I came back to this diptera forum to check this out ... and I found your EDIT !TumbsUp



So I was wrong => this is a Dioctria hyalipennis female ?Wink

I am sure it is... : ). According Bosak Hradsky, the alternative D. baumhaueri should have black occiptal bristles and this one has light coloured ones.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
