This small fly (c5mm) keyed out to Angioneura cyrtoneurina, but I have no comparative material nor can I find any photos of the species. Taken beside a spring-fed stream in a marshy valley bottom in the Yorkshire Wolds, UK yesterday. Parafacialia are bare, as is the prosternum. One strong pair of scutellar bristles and a shorter, crossed apical pair. Frons roughly 3x width of ocellar triangle. Thanks for any help with confirmation. andrewsi attached the following image:  [162.89Kb] |

Thanks It is looking good ! Check whether the calpyter is large / Calliphorid-like and not small / Rhinophoridae-like. Theo |

Thank you very much, Theo...definitely Calliphorid-like calypters. It keyed out quite easily from Steven Falk's key to Calliphoridae...just needed to know I was not barking up completely the wrong tree! |
