Hi Photos taken today (blurry...) in VISEU. I went to garden and saw a fly in leaf litter. Very dark fly, and small. Which can be this fly? Thank you. jorgemotalmeida attached the following image:  [178.79Kb] Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 09-09-2006 14:42 |

My guess is a female Melanophora roralis (Rhinophoridae) - hunting for woodlice.

Sounds as a good guess. However, the wings are completely dark, suggesting rather a male. Males are 'notorious' sun-bathers. Theo Zeegers |
