Difficult to reach genus level. Angry

I found this elongate Drosophilidae yesterday night on my balcony attracted by the light. Minas de Riotinto, Huerlva.

Very happy with any suggestion. TumbsUp

Lordiphosa sp. With only this one photo it is difficult to reach species level.

Thanks, Jan! TumbsUp

Happy with genus level. But what should I have photographed to reach species level? For the next time.


Saludos,

In Lordiphosa, genitalia are important (like in many other insects). To see them, and other important structures, the insect should be photographed more or less from the side. I understand it is not easy to achieve this...
