Alghero Sardinia Italy 13-06-2008 dimension about 5 mm. on Cynara cardunculus. For comparison with the gallery I think Chaetostomella cylindrica male and female. Thanks. Pietro attached the following image: [101.83Kb] Ciao Pietro |

Wow! Indeed, a Chaetostomella sp. ex cylindrica aggr. I am curious if they oviposite into Cynara, too? Send me coordinates of the location, if possible.

Here the geographical dates: 40.61350449783564 N, 8.243587017059326 E. H. 195 m. I can?t answer your second question, but i suppose it because on the same plant (Cynara cardunculus) there was a lot of Terellia (I think longicauda). Ciao Pietro |

Terellia you mention are almost certainly T. fuscicornis Lw. or (if the antennae are not black), an undescribed new species.

Hi Valery , thank you very much. About Terellia you are in right, you are a magician. I?ve checked my images: the fly really have the apex of antennae black. T. fuscicornis was uncnown for me (no pictures are in the gallery). I will open a new post with images. Ciao Pietro |
