Hi,
Recently Paul kindly identified a Mycetophila for me. I have some more mycetophilids in stock, and this is a much bigger one. It has hairy eyes (all my specimens seem to have so) and no shadowy marks on the wings. The tibial spurs are impressive, but not so hairy like in the specimen of the earlier thread. Is this just another Mycetophila spec., or can we get closer to a name?
Thanks, Sundew
