Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Dioxyna sororcula? -> yes

Hello,

this rather tiny Tephritidae is from april from Tenerife. I found it on Bidens pilosa.

First I thought about Dioxyna bidentis, but the I saw that the wing pattern is slightly different. If it is genus Dioxyna at all, it has to be D. sororcula. Can someone confirm this, or correct this?

Thanks,
Michael

Hello Valery,

thank you for the confirmation.

@Paul: Do you want the photo for the gallery, or is it too small?

Michael
