Hello! A nightly 4 mm fly from our house (northwest Germany) some days ago. Is it a Fannia male? Thanks in advance!

Hi, Jorge! jorgemotalmeida wrote: seems to be Fannia canicularis . Male. Thanks! But shouldn't there be some orange at its sides? http://www.dipter...d_id=24059 Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

the photo is rather dark that's why I told "it seems". Yes, F. cannicularis male has orange patches at the sides in the abdomen. |

It is an Anthomyiidae : the A1 vein seems to reach the wing margin, at least it well too long for any Fanniidae.
