And finally with this key (in german):
Identification Key of the Westpalaearctic Species of Chamaepsila (Diptera: Psilidae), Wang 1988:
2 scutellar bristles, 2 dorsocentrals, 3 verticals, thorax all black OK.
We cannot see the underside of the fore femora:
Fore femur with row of longer hairs ventrally? = nigricornis else rosae
Our flies seem to be C. nigricornis or rosae.
Greetings, Eric
I am very grateful for your interest and the help you give me to identify this little dipteran.
I add two more photographs to try to show the details that distinguish the two Chamaepsila species that are in doubt.
I also comment that I have the collected specimen and that for me it is of no more interest than the photos that I can take of it. If you may have any interest or curiosity in receiving the insect, I can send it to you by post in a small eppendorg with 70% alcohol or 10% formaldehyde.
Kind regards,
Jose Marin
