These imagoes were reared from mixture of moist wood dust and sap. Carpaty. Is it possible - Mycetobia pallipes or something else?

Having no info on more recently decribed species I can only base my opinion on the earlier keys, but from those it would seem that this is pallipes. Mamaev's illustrations of ganitalie in Bei-Bienko show the other side, so if you can manage a photo of the reverse side of the genitalia that might already be helpful.

This is consistent with Mamaev's illustration of pallipes, so the only question remaining is if recently described species have a similar shape of the genitalia.

Thank you very much. According to Diptera Biosystematic database not so many species have been described since that time so I think we can stop here now. |
