Hi, I was working with my Drosophilidae and found this small nice fly from the indet unit. It has nothing to do with Drosophilidae but how abouth Sphaeroceridae ? June 26. 2008 Loviisa, Finland. Jari JariF attached the following image:  [119.52Kb] Edited by JariF on 19-04-2010 05:28 |

Well I didn't know it is that good. We have several specimens in our database. KWQ and Kahis has found this species some years ago. The place is called Harmaakallio field in the middle of pine forest. I have found several better species from that area. There should even be pictures of my malaise trap in the field somewhere in this site. Jari |

June 20, 2010, Naro-Fominsk, Moscow region, Russia. 2 males on a freshly broken birch tree. I looked (and have found) for Chymomyza and happened to spot these small flies, they crawled slowly on exposed wood like Leiomyza or something like that. Next day I returned to that tree around 8 p.m. but couldn't find more of these (yet there was still plenty of Chymomyza, 3 spp.)

Very nice, I also found Chymomyza this year, but on window. Now I know that I should look on freshly cut birch trees. As we had intense flooding, a lot of trees are put down nowadays in the forest to prevent them from accidental falling - maybe it will be an opportunity to find interesting flies

Saw 1 male and 1 female at same location yesterday, a single shot of female (they're not so slow, actually). Conditions (first of all, humidity) change quickly, only a few Chymomyza this time.
