 Hi all,

I found this female recently in northern California. The wing veins and other characters seem to place it near Limnophila but I am not sure how to rule out other genera like Pseudolimnophila or Austrolimnophila. The wing length was 11 mm. Can anyone provide ID help with this one?

Thanks!
Ken

Does someone has a scan of Nartshuk E.P. 2003. Key to families of Diptera (Insecta) of the fauna of Russian and adjacent countries. Proceedings of the Zoological Institute Vol. 294: 1-252 for me?
