And this one. The wings are not visible in this one, however looks very similar to the previous one. I will try to get a better picture. /Marcus Marcus attached the following image:  [63.68Kb] |

Might be Coboldia fuscipes, based on the genitalis. Have a dorsal and ventral view?

Thanks! I can take some tomorrow. I will try to get clearer pics of the wings of the other one as well. Any clue as to what that one might be? Cheers Marcus |

It has really short wings (second photo). Is it able to fly? |

No idea. We caught it in a flower (long story). I think however that the angle of the wings might play a trick. /M |

Yes must be a male of Coboldia fuscipes.

Here are some more pics of the second species. First wings, was a bit tricky to get a picture of the full wing... /Marcus Marcus attached the following image:  [106.73Kb] |

And one of the genitals...well almost at least. Again tricky to get a proper picture. I dunno how useful this is? As for the previous post with the wings. The comment regarding the wings being short is quite accurate. They do seem fairly short! /M Marcus attached the following image:  [79.79Kb] |
