Hello everyone, For my first post on diptera.info, I propose a Tabanidae found in Northern France (28/05/2016), in an arborescent swamp (Alnus glutinosa, Salix, ...). I tried different keys. The French one seems too old. The Hungarian one brings me to Tabanus tropicus bisignatus = Hybomitra bimaculata bisignata The English one is... wierd. The key suppose that the specimen is partly orange, to say later that it can have no trace of this color, it's a bit confusing. So, my last word will be Hybomitra bimaculata bisignata. I'll attach better pics if I can. HugoB attached the following image: [164.05Kb] Edited by HugoB on 05-08-2016 08:58 |

Welcome ! Yes, that is indeed the f. bisignata of Hybomitra bimaculata. Try the dutch key ! (Zeegers & van Haaren, 2000). Theo |

Is the Dutch key available anywhere? Various searches have drawn a blank. Steve Steve Crellin steve_crellin1@hotmail.co.uk Isle of Man |

It is sold out and the publisher refuses a reprint. He is no longer interested in this kind of work Pity. Maybe you need to complain with him: KNNV Uitgeverij, Utrecht Theo |
