 Is it possible to tell which species these Tipula craneflies belong to? I believe they are all individuals of the same species, but I could be mistaken. Seen in and around a commercial strawberry field in Kent, UK on 11/05/2021. Any help with the ID would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,
Dylan

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
