Hi, can anyone say how to tell Neria cibaria and Calobata petronella apart? Is it possible from a photo? However I know that this photo is not that sharp.

Recently we had a similar discussion (http://www.dipter...d_id=55025)... As your fly seems to have no orange shoulders, Neria might be the better candidate, but wing venation is decisive!
