Hello! A 5 mm fly from 5th November at the light (northwest Germany). Is it Eccoptomera? Possible to say more? Thanks in advance!

You should to shoot the hind femur in lateral view. It is Eccoptomera but at time nothing more ... What about the sex ?. The number of preapical britles on mid tibia is unknown. How big are the genae ? and how about scutellum (haired ?). Andrzej dr. A. J. Woznica, Institute of Environmental Biology, Wroclaw University of Environmental & Life Sciences |

Thanks a lot for your remarks, but I could only make two or three pics from this angle, then the fly was away  . Here is a less compressed JPG (156 KB ), that's the best I could get. But I am afraid, that will not help much more...http://www.foto-u...sp_5mm.jpg Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Probably two preapicals on the mid tibia. The presence of its will narrow the species level  . With all probability (ca 99,99%) E. pallescens. Edited by Andrzej on 26-11-2008 10:37 dr. A. J. Woznica, Institute of Environmental Biology, Wroclaw University of Environmental & Life Sciences |
