Ephydrid Fly

DateWed 2010-06-30

An Ephydrid fly, possibly Notiphila riparia (Diptera: Ephydridae) based on this comment by 'Cranefly' at diptera.info.  It was standing on an aphid-infested burdock plant (Arctium sp.) that was growing on the dam at the lower end of the large lake.

Photos taken in Whiteknights Park, Reading University grounds, Reading, UK, on 2010-06-27.
