I caught this unusual tipulid 2009-09-04 in Moscow province (Russia). I understand that species identification of this group is complicated, but I hope that his wings are reliable systematic sign. Other signs are: - serrate antennae - long palpi (if I correct understand this word)   Thanks! Edited by Nikolai Morozov on 18-09-2009 22:17 |

Not Tipulidae but Pediciidae. Pedicia cf. rivosa

Aaa.)) Thanks you very much! Still one question - is it male or female? Edited by Nikolai Morozov on 19-09-2009 13:40 |
