Taken by Francisco Rodriguez in Almeria, SE Spain on the 15th April 2011. In bushes in the mountains. Clairvillia? So many similar genera that I get easily lost. Thanks in advance for any help!  There are more shots if needed. Piluca_Alvarez attached the following image:  [147.3Kb] Edited by Piluca_Alvarez on 08-12-2011 17:12 |

I'm sorry, Piluca, but that is not the same fly. The first one is a male Clairvillia, there are only two (biguttata and pninae), need to work on that The second one is an Eriothrix or possibly a Zeuxia. Theo |

Well, Theo, I thought so myself, but I belived it was only my imagination due to how much those genera confuse me  I will ask Francisco for more pictures of the second fly. And thanks for the confirmation of the Clairvillia  |

Thanks so much again, Theo! I have just got the stuff for the second fly (he apologizes, there were two flies in the same plant and he got both mixed up). Once I have all prepared I am going to post it in a different thread  That's the best thing to do Also found here: http://www.biodiv...02219.html Edited by Piluca_Alvarez on 07-12-2011 21:45 |
