 By Eric LaGasa, Washington State Department of Agriculture The following pictures are provided for reference, to assist in the identification of the introduced exotic cranefly species presented on the Crane Fly Identification pages. As can be seen in the following pictures, most cranefly species in the Pacific Northwest have obvious coloration or structural differences when compared to Tipula oleracea and T. paludosa. The most obvious differences are in body coloration and wing pigmentation. Wing patterns, often seen as colored veins or various dark shapes, or "pictures", are common in the non-target (native) species. Click any image to enlarge. |
