Hey
As I found a Nematocera (?) Tipulid (?) adulte living in a old sample flask, I wish to honour it by giving a name
(and put a link with some larvae I had already determinated in this sample)

Would you please help ?
The sample was pond freshwater collected in 12/2015
This adult is 1 centimeter length, and some part of its flesh is light green

Here are some pictures

Thank you
I supposed it could be Metriocnemus or Microtendipes as I had a lot of this larvae in the sample
How can I go further, I will make more pictures

Hello,

sorry, I am no expert. You will have to wait for the specialists.
Best regards,
Jürgen

Tribe Chironomini.

In almost all cases, Orthocladiinae have no or short dorsal eye extensions, vein M ending closer to wingtip than R4+5, and fore basitarsus shorter than fore tibia. Chironomini, again with rare exceptions, have long dorsal eye extensions, vein M and R4+5 ending on opposite sides of wingtip, and fore basitarsus longer than tibia.

Reliable identification to genus or species normally requires close inspection of male genitalia.

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
