Hi all!!!

This is a green-eyed Dolichopodidae photographed in Gijón (N Spain) on September the 25th. Any idea what it is?

Thank you very much in advance for any help...

A rubbish picture with a frontal view but I'm adding it just in case it helps:

Dear Marian,

My best guess would be Dolichopus griseipennis (see a previous picture with a male on Diptera.Info). Antennal colour matches as well as the single bristle on hind metatarsus.

With kind regards,
Marc

Thanks a lot, Stefan and Marc!!!

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't get notification of your answers (my fault, forgot to click the reply notification box, :()

Dolichopus griseipennis looks right to me... and I've just verified and we have it here so I think it's a good guess. :-)

Very grateful. Best

Marian
