To me it looks like it can be S. vaginata, but arista might look plumose maybe(??) which suggests pallida. Do you have a bigger pic? Wait for Andrzej! I am still a trainee. Hyperbolizer |

Hmm, both species mentioned by "Cyprinoid" have similar aristal "chaetotaxy". Suillia pallida species-group is the best name for your male specimen ! dr. A. J. Woznica, Institute of Environmental Biology, Wroclaw University of Environmental & Life Sciences |

I am easily thrown off by the terminology, total lack of experience :-). I was very close though.

Thanks Andrzej. That is a really nice name for my fly cyprinoid wrote: . I am easily thrown off by the terminology, total lack of experience :-) You've learned a lot since you joined. Hopefully so have I. I'm still getting lost in the terminology though cyprinoid wrote: I was very close though. You were indeed! Edited by lagura on 24-10-2009 18:15 |
