Today I photographed this fly at Leerdam, Netherlands. Because of the orange tip to the scutellum, I thought of Muscina. Could it be Muscina levida? Thanks in advance! Jan Zwaaneveld attached the following image:  [150.75Kb] http://slamenietd...web-log.nl |

It seems to me that if make image extremely white, that palpi is yellow. In this case more probably Muscina prolapsa. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Hello Nikita, thanks, you are right, the palps are yellowish, so it cannot be levida. Since it is not stabulans either, it must be prolapsa then, or could M. pascuorum also be a possibility? http://slamenietd...web-log.nl |
