At last a smaller species (IX.2006)
Would be glad to hear some professional comments as usual.
Does anyone want to see my alpine Bibionidae? ;)

Hi Frank
Yes, Bibio marci (1 i: genetive of marcus, meaning St. marc = 25? april)
Yes, i would like to see your alpine Bibionidae, but don't expect a positive ID on all.

B. marci too? In September?
The specimen from the alps will be the same, than in the lowland areas - i fear;)
Greetings Frank

Dilophus sp. In the lowlands this female would be
D. febrilis because of the darkened wings.

Sorry, right answer on wrong post (and therefore, wrong answer).
Even in lowland this certainly is Dilophus febrilis female: only Dilophus with strongly darkened wings (female sex)
