This pipunculid-fly I`ve caught with a formaline-filled yellow tray in the week before 06.05.09
Blaubeuren S-Germany, montane deciduous forest.
Size:3,9mm
Does s.o.recognize species?
Thanks!

Looks like a
Dorylomorpha, but you'll have to tease out the genitalia for a positive ID.

Thank you Phil! I hope this shot of terminalia would be sufficient.

Eudorylas, the genit. photo inadequate to determine species, need to separate hypandrium so as to see phallus and phallic guide and need to photo surstyli in dorsal view.

Thank you David. My optical equipment won´t be sufficient for these details. I´m quite happy with genus-ID.
