Found this fly 14 April 2008 on a wall in my garden (Koudekerke, Netherlands). I checked the pictures in the gallery, but didn't find a look-alike. Who can help me with its name and gender? Albert de Wilde wilde attached the following image:  [124.94Kb] Albert de Wilde |

Hi Liekele, thanks. I think it is a male but not 100% sure. I'll wait for Chris or Theo to confirme the name. If so I'll offer it to the gallery. This species is lacking. Albert de Wilde Albert de Wilde |

Ok thanks Theo. Liekele presumed it was this species. He did't say 'definitely Campylochaeta praecox'. I thought he wasn't quite sure of it. That's why I wanted a confirmation. I know Liekele 's name as a respected expert of EIS Leiden. Albert de Wilde |
