Hello,
First of all a Happy New Year to all the Fly lovers! :)
I hope I got it right with Dilophus febrilis!
The females had an extra shield behind the eyes and only one set of 'antennae'.
When I looked in the gallery I saw there were no pictures of the male, but some with only 'Dilophus sp.' So I suppose they must be hard to differentiate from other male sp. from only pictures.
If I'm right that these are Dilophus febrilis, then I suppose that the males in their company must be the same specie ? ;)
Then I can add one to the Gallery..
at the banquet on Heracleum..18th August 2009, nature reserve Gent, Belgium
