Where do you see that ? Golden hairs on thorax would be this, for my eyes at least: http://agrozoo.ne...c0f417489e Edited by BubikolRamios on 20-03-2011 20:13 highly searchable nature photo galery --> http://agrozoo.ne....jsp?l2=en |

Well, Pollenia are difficult because the hairs get rubbed off easily with age - on yours the hairs are just visible but it is almost bald  The majority of hairs are towards the scutellum on your fly but there is a light scattering across the top too
