Hi Forum, Would this little one (3 mm.) be a Coenosia, or are there any other possibilities? Picture taken 29 april 2009 on the Netherlands Wadden Sea island of Griend. Thanks, Date Date attached the following image:  [149.25Kb] Edited by Date on 03-05-2009 19:28 |

I'm certainly no expert, but it looks like a Coenosia tigrina that I photographed recently – there are plenty of them about in my garden in the UK at the moment. But I should wait for an expert to come along!

Your flies certainly resemble mine. All I can do is wait... |

Coenosia is correct, but this is not C. tigrina. I can't say which species.
Stephane. |

Hi Stephane, Thank you for affirming Coenosia. Do you know whether further identification is at all possible from this photo? I was not able te collect the fly. Date Edited by Date on 11-09-2009 20:41 |
