hi flyforum, This week I found this Phaonia fly(I think it is Phaonia) but don't know which species..? It wasn't big (<10mm) obvious infuscated crossveins (heavy), rather big eyes compare to the rest. Eyes close to each other (male..?) and there's some black in the red eyes. the fly looks a bit compact(solid), not so elongated or elegant. Basal antennal segments are coloured, top of scutellum is also coloured. posterior setae on leg II (if I see this correctly) long (dorsal centrals) strong setae on thorax 1 prescutellar ac. On the scutem there is a broadlined pattern of stripes, rather rough.. I watched the gallery and Phaonia perdita got some of it.., but I know that this could be tricky.. I am wondering what kind of fly this could be.. place: Amsterdam forest, The Netherlands date: 17-10-2008 Robert, Robert Heemskerk attached the following image:  [123.25Kb] Edited by Robert Heemskerk on 18-10-2008 23:44 Greeting, Robert Heemskerk ---- WWW: http://robertheem...ndedag.htm --- |

Thank you Stephane, I looked in Gallery and found a picuture of a male of P. tuguriurum (of Juergen). They are quite different, males and females. The eyes are really close together.. And this specie is more little (then P. Valida) Robert, Greeting, Robert Heemskerk ---- WWW: http://robertheem...ndedag.htm --- |
