Please, don't be disappointed! As to your latest photos: all have1 pair of wings, so can only be Diptera - true-flies. Next, look at the antennae - three-segmented, so they must be of the Brachycera sub-family. I can't identify the first two any further, but the last is Dolichopodidae. May I suggest you micro-pin specimens such as these apparently 'big-ish' ones? I know some flies are best left in alcohol, but as you can see here the legs can be rather difficult to see and colours can fade. I think alcohol is best with gnats and certain other Nematocerans.

Yes first one indeed Startiomyidae. Second one Hybotidae, Drapetis or a related genus. Third one is actualy Anthomyzidae, probably Anthomyza. Fourth indeed Dolichopodidae; Medetera or related genus. Jan Willem van Zuijlen |

Heimlich, can you please read the Code of Conduct again? You forgot to note where and when your specimens were collected and have put 4 apparently unrelated species in one thread. BTW, the hybotid is, indeed, Drapetis; the stratiomyid probably Chloromyia formosa, but that is assuming they are from Poland. Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |

I am ashamed about my pictures comparing to all pictures that I saw at forum…I tried not to put much threads with my ugly pictures containing insects in alkohol. Nevertheless I understand the difficulties, which had appeared because of putting many pictures in 1 thread. I will take it into account. Kind regards! Edited by Heimlich on 31-01-2012 12:58 |
