23 April 2007, New Brunswick, Canada. Length: 5mm. Abdomen is somewhat flat and seems disproportionally small comapred to thorax. Fly is actually almost black, lightened in photos to show details. Tony T attached the following image: [158.41Kb] Edited by Tony T on 05-05-2008 19:12 |

Tony, it is male of Anthomyiidae. Something near Delia or another goddamned genus in this goddamned family. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

I was thinking Egle or Paregle, but Nikita's masterfully summary leaves nothing to add Kahis |

Thanks Nikita & Kahis. Just filling in time until some warm weather arrives and the decent flies appear. A few warm days last week but the next 2 weeks look grim. I just have to photograph something - you guys know what long winters are like! |

We do? Well, perhaps Nikita does... The 'winter' of 2007 lasted less than two months. Pathetic.

Nikita did... Now I spend most part of winter in hot countries... Regarding at shape of antennae at second photo I suspect that I was wrong and Kahis right with Egle/Paregle Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
