 Hi,
Today several of these Muscids were sunbathing on tree bark (no ideal background for photos!). Their hairy eyes reminded me of Helina evecta. However, are the cross veins sufficiently infuscated? Or is this another Helina? These grey ones trouble me indeed... Stéphane is my hope!
Many thanks, Sundew

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
