Hello, I think, Ephydridae (near Philygria?). But I am no expert. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Hi ole, Jürgen & Paul, I think I see three dorscocentrals, that with the white wing spot but lacking a dark outer wing border should exclude Trixoscelis marginella. There are no other Trixoscelis species in North-West Europe to my knowledge that have these features. Maybe it is indeed a Ephydridae, like Jürgen suggested, what do you think, Paul? Kind regards, Ectemnius |

As for me it is not a Trixoscelis species. The specimen has less than 5 pairs of dorsocentral bristles (probably 1+2 pairs) and the antenna seems to be lengthened (not typically rounded as in European Trixoscelis species). I see a white spot near the apical part of the wing membrane  . Maybe a better picture will solve the ID problem at the family level...

If Andrzej says no to Trixoscelis then we are back to Ephydridae

I also think Ephydridae subfamily Ilytheinae. |

Looks like a Philygria from these photos, but not one I recognize. A specimen would be useful!
