Two days ago when I was searching for hibernating winter damselflies I found 3 species of tephritids in the tops of small pine trees (Pinus) and also 2 in Calluna. This was in the Netherlands in Noord-Brabant near Grave. I think it might be T. neessii; is this correct? André den Ouden Andre den Ouden attached the following image: [80.84Kb] |

Tephritis neesii is correct. You must have good eyes, I have problems finding them on Calluna. Ben |

Thanks, Ben! Finding them on Calluna is perhaps easier than finding Winter damselflies because the latter hide themselve as they see you.. André den Ouden |
