Of course! Thanks a lot, John. I suppose further ID is impossible? |

It reminds me a bit of Microtendipes. If you find a similar male (feathery antennae) shoot the front femur from a few angles and you might get the distinctive patch of hairs at about 2/3 distance along it. Females don't have the patch of hairs. It could also be one of the genera near Endochironomus. Edited by John Carr on 19-04-2011 01:01 |
