Sara, is there any chance of identifying a Chlorops (I think) species from photographs?

Might be Chlorops hypostigma, but it's just a guess. See http://www.dipter...d_id=31860 for some details.

It is Chlorops, but I can't say which species. :)
Because of some characters aren't observable for confirm, another for ID of Chlorops need species and it is difficult by picture. ;)


Edit: I liked to add a picture about C. hypostigma, but unfortunately I couldn't because of its size! :(

Thanks Sundew and Sara. I thought that would be the answer - but then I thought Thaumatomyia were inseparable till you arrived, Sara :D
