Thanks a lot Clovis for your reply. I'm already happy to know with certainty the family! Unfortunately the specimen kept its wings closed so it is difficult to recognize the veins. Anyway I post you an enlarged picture of the wings in case it could help... Thanks again! mammut attached the following image:  [60.36Kb] |

These are nice pictures of Limonia maculipennis (Limoniidae). Go to http://nlbif.eti.uva.nl/ccw/ for more pictures of and info about the species. Maybe some of these images can be added to the website as well? Thanks in advance. Pjotr Oosterbroek |

Thank you very much Pjotr for identifying my fly! I tried the website you indicated but unfortunately I wasn't able to find pictures or specific data for the species ... (using search function it says "taxa does not exist" ?) If you wish to add my pictures, no problem - I'm happy if they can be useful  |
