This morning when I came into work, we had this flying around the museum store I have as yet been unable to capture it. Our store is an industrial building and it is now sitting high up on one of the outside walls. I am located in Wakefield in West Yorkshire - at first because of the red wings I thought it might be a butterfly but it is small for a butterfly.
I could not get a photo of it flying around Mary J Mary Macqueen ACR Museums & Heritage Officer: Conservation & Collections Wakefield Council Sport & Culture WMDC Central Museum Store Milner Way OSSETT WF5 9JE jmmacqu...@wakefield.gov.uk<mailto:jmmacqu...@wakefield.gov.uk> phone01924 262717 mobile 07534714681 For further Information please visit: www.experiencewakefield.co.uk<http://www.experiencewakefield.co.uk/> www.wakefield.gov.uk<http://www.wakefield.gov.uk/> From: ad...@museumpests.net [mailto:ad...@museumpests.net] On Behalf Of bugma...@aol.com Sent: 25 June 2012 18:54 To: pestlist@museumpests.net Subject: Re: [pestlist] Help with identification This is a message from the Museumpests List.

I don't recall ever seeing them before, but this June they are out in abundance. They are just under a centimeter in length and are yellow-green in color [please see attached photograph]. I'm new to IPM and have checked all of my resources without coming up with an identification. Could they be fungus gnats? Any help would be very much appreciated.
