Why not a Timia? Please compare with Timia testacea at http://pics.livej.../0003w1kx/ (it's not a reliable source of course). Maybe I'll check keys in Zaitsev, 1984 (Zoologicheskii Zhurnal, 63(4):628-630) and Gorodkov & Zaitsev, 1986 (Zoologicheskii Zhurnal, 65(12):1901-1905) or better wait for the expert to return from vacation. |

Identified as Timia nigripes Mik, 1889 by Tatiana Golinskaya, a postgraduate student of Ulidiidae/Otitidae/Tephritidae. |

Yes, Elena Kameneva has also confirmed this ID. Sorry - we had not seen this before. Also, you can use Elena's PhD thesis (in Ukrainian) - to check it. There is at least a working key to Central Asian Timia: http://sites.goog...era/resume see at page bottom for references Val |
