This fly measured 3.5 mm from the front of the face to the rear of the wings. The fly was on a squash plant, in an open area but near woodlands, in West Virginia USA. The date was 29 July 2006. ID help appreciated! Stephen attached the following image:  [49.92Kb] --Stephen Stephen Cresswell www.americaninsects.net |

Hi Stephen, Might be Drosophilidae. I'm curious what the specialists will make of this species. Jan Willem |
