Hi :D

This was taken around 10 minutes after the one I think is Psilopa nitidula, just a note in case I have the other sex.;)

2 pics, I have a face view taken around a minute before which I think is the same but can't be sure, so if wanted I can post that too.

Taken on 12th October 2009, near Lincoln UK .

Ditrichophora or related genus. Don't think it's Psilopa

Thanks Tony, there is a Ditrichophora sp. in the Gallery which it resembles.

We have 4 species here, D. calceata, D. fuscella, D. nectens and D. palliditarsis.

Is that of any help?
