and they are, Stephen!  I'm only saying that it is not a family properly adequate to ID only from the photos. As you know with anthomyiids genitalia must be checked in most of the cases.

Correct the Hylemya cf. vagans ? or Stephen R identified with certainty? jorgemotalmeida wrote: and they are, Stephen! I'm only saying that it is not a family properly adequate to ID only from the photos. As you know with anthomyiids genitalia must be checked in most of the cases. |

I was just telling that in many cases this is true for Anthomyiids (needs genitalia). However I was no arguing that Stephen could be wrong in this case. |

Jorge is right that many Anthomyiidae are not identifiable from photos especially if, like this one, they are female. But this is a lucky exception - there are not many genera with a plumose arista, and once you have arrived at Hylemya (female), the leg colours are enough to indicate H.vagans with reasonable probability. |
