Mid tibia and basitarsus distinctly ornamented, so it is Dolichopus plumipes Igor Grichanov |

Thanks Igor.. The fly only had 3 legs left  , luckily for me,one held the key to its ID . I assume it is a male with all that tackle hanging off the back end.Regards Roger |

Other photo's are either on my Portable Hard Disc at work or been sent to Recycle Bin (now empty). Fly is at work in a plastic cup among the others I have found, so will take photo' this evening...assuming I can find all the bits. I think its the only one with yellow legs. Hope you guys aren't going to fall-out over a dead fly . Regards Roger.....Bodyparts R.US |

Hope this clears it up. Igor (Eagle-Eyes) Grichanov would appear to be right. Well I missed the whole mid-leg in my count... .Regards Roger Roger Thomason attached the following image:  [49.71Kb] |

Sorry for not sending in a proper photo in the first place . As I said previously..I didn't even see that leg in the first 2 photo's. Took me a while to figure out which leg was which as it was in a bit of a tangle, and only ~3mm in size. Regards Roger Thank you for the time spent on this little guy. |
