Found in oak, mixed area near Copenhagen yesterday.
The front foot, brusches and colouring of hindleg seems to fit the pic in gallery. http://www.dipter...to_id=6112

Can the ID bee confirmed?
Thanks in advance, Ole

D. brevipennis has only one pre-apical bristle on the hind femur, while yours has three. According to my out-of-date British key (Fonseca) it could be D. claviger, which has the lower post-ocular bristles pale (hard to see in the photos). Best wait for the experts Wink

Aha!
then not brevipennis.
the lower post-ocular bristles seems pale so D. claviger if nothing unexpectet turns up.
Thank you so far, Stephan - sure I´ll wait for an expert. Smile
