One problem I had at first was to realize that there are a lot of flies out there that look classically Tachiniini but are actually in other, unrelated tribes. You really have to key them out and double-check features like hairs on the hind coxae to be sure.  Nice photos though ... but specimens would have been better   Manager of the UK Species Inventory in the Angela Marmont Centre for UK Biodiversity at the Natural History Museum, London. |
