If the arista is feathery, Mycophaga. If the arista is bare, Pegomya (so I believe). James |

Feathery is maybe misleading. You have to get very close to see the arista on Mycophaga clearly. I attach one of my own photos where you can see how difficult it can be. James jck attached the following image:  [195.56Kb] |

This one was taken with a Raynox converter on the front of my Canon macro lens - and on a tripod. If you go looking for the flies in the early morning - before they have warmed up properly - you can sometimes get surprisingly close to take photos such as this one. James |
