Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Miltogramma germari?

Hi,
Recently I spotted a member of Miltogramminae on Achillea. It was a Miltogramma, and I think it could be M. germari, though there are more species around Berlin. To exclude M. oestraceum one should check the fore tarsus of the male - but how can I recognize the sex here? The tarsi are unmodified, but that is normal for females of both species...
Help is appreciated! Regards, Sundew
