Ruud is more likely to be sampling lots of Cretan Wine and eating too much food to get any flies for you Jorge..

jorgemotalmeida 23 April 2012 22:01:26

..collecting lots and lots of Mythicomyiidae, Acroceridae and Nemestrinidae for me, isn't it, Ruud? Thanks! I knew you would do it.

only 12 days and I go to Crete. A whole week almost nothing else than collecting lots and lots of flies.

Just started to drizzle here. Some rain at last, but if it only had come a little later I would not become wet during my cycle tour home.

Interesting thanks for replies I've always wondered.

Are you sure about that Gunnar?????????

Gunnar M Kvifte 17 March 2012 03:53:37

According to wikipedia, the largest tipulids can get 64 mm long. I haven't found any primary source for this, but 64 is higher than 60.

jorgemotalmeida 16 March 2012 13:38:23

"The flies range from 9–60 mm in body length and the Neotropical species Gauromydas heros (Perty, 1833; Mydidae: Mydinae) is believed to be the largest known Diptera."

jorgemotalmeida 16 March 2012 13:37:36

Gauromydas heros is supposed to be the largest dipteran so far. Check tinyurl.com/85jvjze and here --> mydidae.tdvia.de.
