Hello, This little Bibio (less than 10mm) was photographed on August the 16th, at the North Cape (Norway). I was rather surprised to see this fly so late in the year and so high in latitude. Thanks in advance for any clue. Edited to put Dilophus in the title. pierred attached the following image:  [38.51Kb] Edited by pierred on 25-08-2006 08:24 Pierre Duhem |

It is a male of Dilophus and that is as far as I want to go.

Male Dilophus (I agree, Paul) can only be identified by their genitalia. Some of these Dilophus are extremely boreo-alpine in distribution. As long as there is something that could be called grass, they might be there. Theo Zegeers |
