High again Here a rather tame fly, it didn't mind me taking photos and flew off only when I touched it (slightly) with my finger. From my poor knowledge it should be a Chrysopilus. In my book there is only Ch. crisatatus, in the Gallery two other ones, and because I don't know where exactly to look, I stick (or, as the Australian say, I bogged in) Southern Germany 700m about sea, beside a garden pool on a leaf of Caltha palustris with casting date in the morning of May 25th 2007 It would be nice if someone could give a name to the poor thing, the veins at least are visible. Thanks a lot, Siga Siga attached the following image:  [87.41Kb] Edited by Siga on 29-08-2020 18:58 |

Most probably Chrysopilus cristatus, a male.

I found one Chrysopilus sp.as well but with two spots in wings. the other is located between the spot we see in the above photo and insertion of wings in the body. |

And you are shure that 2. spot is not the shadow of the halteres? (Because on one photo I found tracking the searches for Chrysopilus in the Forum posts the halters appeared just as a dark shadow) |

My specimen is quite similar to the your photo. Perhaps mine is C. cf. cristatus as well. |
