Hi I am new to this forum. I have a few species that I need to get confirmed. So here is the first one. Using Skartveit, 1995 I key this out to Bibio lepidus. However there is this species B. longipes, but it is not included in this key. I also wonder if this is a synonym of B. lepidus (or vice versa). Location: Faroe Islands Date: September The photos show a female ( brown legs) and a male Thanks

Lepidus = longipes. Yours seem to be similar to longipes, indeed. Theo |
