 A very leggy Dolichopodid collected at UV light, Florida, USA, June 10 2011. Can genus be determined (with its very long coxae, I suspect Neurigona; the face reminds me of Chrysotus). Body length is approx. 3.2 mm.

 I guess Dactylomyia lateralis Say (Neurigoninae), the only species of this genus in North America.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.

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’?
