Hello,

A Tachinidae found in North of France, Cassel, the 29 july 2015, on a shaded part of a Tree trunk, in a pretty humid area, in a mainly decidious forest
Maybe an Admontia seria ?


Greetings,

Thomas

seems an excellent suggestion.

It is likely to be a male, given the antennal length. And than the claws are really short.
Of course, 1 ad on tibia 1 and clearly not blanda ....

By the way, seria is a specialist of TIpulidae living in rotholes in trees.
So also the habitat makes total sense.

Thanks you very much, Theo ! Smile

There is indeed a lot of Tipuloidea in this area ! I think I have already seen Dictenidia bimaculata but I'm not totally sure if that was in the same area (?), but I think there might be lots of Tipulidae living on dead wood and in rotholes in this area !

There is also Tipula subg. Dendrotipula in wood, don't forget that one !
No all Ctenophorinae.

Do any female European Admontia have normal fore tarsi (not widened)?

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
