 Hi,

I have photographed this fly at the surface of a river, last July. Loc. : Rambouillet (40km SW of Paris).
About 7-8mm long.
At what species/genus could it belong?
Thanks for any help, cheers,

FRV

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
