Quite unusual. Is it coastal, the location ? I guess the fly is really that grey, without orange ? Theo |

Theo, No coastal, no orange. Monegros is an arid place, but this fly was on a little pond where sheeps drinks etc... Some more photos: picotverd attached the following image:  [28.23Kb] |

Sorry to have kept you wainting. It is pretty clear that this is either A. flavoguttatus or pulchellus. Now flavoguttatus does occur in Spain, pulchellus does not. So that seems easy. However, several features point to pulchellus. Especially annoying is the central grey vitta, that should not be there in flavoguttatus. I have only 1 flavoguttatus, a male, and it has 2 grey vittae, central one lacking. However, in some lights, especially dorsal, the tip of hairs can give a very convincing impression of the third, central vitta being present. In a rear view, it completely disappeares. As in the pics above, So I tend to think that this is a aberrant female of flavoguttatus. Nice job ! Theo |
