Hello, is my assumption right or belongs this fly to another species? All legs are dark. Thank you, Marion Photo from May 2011, Germany, Saxony. Marion Friedrich attached the following image:  [115.73Kb] Edited by Marion Friedrich on 07-04-2012 10:50 |

It is a male anthomyiid, but I cannot see enough to go further. Hydrophoria should have a plumose arista, and H. lancifer has a long prealar seta, neither of which is apparent here. |

Stephen, thank you for explanation of the characteristic details which are not visible here. So I have to wait for another more pacient specimen, allowing views from more angles. Marion |
