Hi, Today I saw this Bibionid on our house wall. It is none of the species I know, so help is appreciated! Thanks, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [126.73Kb] |

Many thanks, Paul - but I was as clever... D. febrilis is the only species I know well! So it will regrettably remain Dilophus spec. |

The snout is very short, so it should be humeralis. Great find Theo |

Theo, again you saved the situation - many thanks! "Great finds" can easily be made - one just has to take a photo of every small critter one comes across... I'll submit a pic to the gallery. Regards, Sundew |
