Hello! Here is a female Tachydromia from north of France (Normandy) About 2.5mm long If i say nothing wrong, 4 species of this genera are present in France: Tachydromia arrogans Tachydromia aemula Tachydromia connexa Tachydromia annulimana T. arrogans feels bigger (i found a picture of a 7 mm specimen here: https://www.galerie-insecte.org/galerie/ref-68880.htm) T. annulimana seems to have black/brown 1st femur) Then, it might be T. aemula or T. connexa... I know that is an hard genera on photo, but mabe someone here will be able to give a name to that fly.... Thanks a lot Paul Onmal attached the following image:  [86.17Kb] Edited by Onmal on 28-09-2020 14:40 |

Tachydromia arrogans. The 7 mm reported for arrogans elsewhere must be incorrect (or perhaps with fore legs stretched in extremis and then to the tips of the wings...?).

Thanks a lot! Estimation errors are common indeed. This one might rectify our data. Paul |
