I have a doubt on the genus, although I think Besseria Collected 17 05 10, size 9mm. pic1 christoophe attached the following image: ![]() [78.35Kb] |

Yes, it looks like Besseria. Cylindromyia has palps lacking, stuff like Clairvillea and Brullaea has the ocellars reclinate. Theo |

OK for the Identification of Cylindromyia. I have no key for these two genus. |

Christoophe, You are saying it is Cylindromyia after all ? It can't be, the topcel is open, isn't it ? Topcel is closed in all Cylindromyia. theo |

Yes indeed on it is not Cylindromyia. I badly expressed myself. I wanted to say: ok for the critere " palps lacking " I have no key for these two genus Clairvillea and Brullaea. Edited by christoophe on 25-10-2010 21:26 |

So both have ocellar bristles RECLINATE, very important ! This means turned backwards. Normal is proclinate or turned forwards |

If reclinate, than for males Vertex 0.7 - 0.9 x width of eye, third antennal segemnt 2.5 second, thorax with 2 dark vittae before suture........................................Brullaea Vertex only 0.3 x width of eye, third antennal segment only 1.5 x second, thorax without vittae.... Clairvillia |

Both specimens which I have, stayed for a long time in the alcohol. They are damaged. I keep this key for future captures. Ocellar bristles reclinate fell, for the rest that seems correct. Thank |
