Norway, 31.07.09, about 5mm Maybe someone recognize the pics, they were posted in another thread a while back together with an Anthomyiidae. And Jorge suggested "Actia sp. or similar"

Yes, it is Actia You can see the setulae on veins nicely. However, I just can't see whether the cubital vein is bare or setulose. If it is bare, it is A. infantula. Theo |

Thanks, looking at the original pic I think it looks setulose, but it's not good enough to say for certain. Am I looking at the right vein? cyprinoid attached the following image:  [139.86Kb] Hyperbolizer |

yes, thank you, those are the setulae I was looking for. With our features visible, it is the female of crassicornis Theo |
