Hello, Unlike other Sciomyzidae sp. this fly was not found on lower vegetation but walking around on a fallen treetrunk. Size about 6 mm, two weeks ago, near Heerlen. Ben Ben Hamers attached the following image:  [70.26Kb] Edited by Ben Hamers on 21-05-2012 19:30 |

I think it is Pherbellia nana/annulipes, but I have to say that I've never seen this fly... And size has to be less - 3mm. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Thanks for putting me on the right trail Nikita. I had rejected Pherbellia because I thought that the part of the head below the eye was to narrow. The size of the fly was definitely at least 5 mm, which rules out P. nana, and P. annulipes is not present in the Dutch checklist. So I will make it Pherbellia sp. Ben |

Narrow checkes (altougether with black rings on apexes of legs 2-3) is trusted charecters for Ph.nana-group (for both images you send). Ph.annulipes is widespread from Scand. to South, so has to be registred in Datch too one day... Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
