Photo taken in Reading, UK on 2013-05-12.

I think this is a female Anthomyia sp but the black patches are not right for the A. procellaris group. Is it A. plurinotata?

Anthomyia plurinotata seems right.
Would be the first record for the UK...!?

Thank you Johanna. I hadn't noticed it wasn't on the UK checklist.

I looks like A. plurinotata, and if it is it is a species new to Britain. If you did not catch a specimen, please go to the locality and search for more and collect them, especially a male. If you don't want to do this, please tell us the locality in detail. It is not possible to record it as positively new to Britain based on a photograph.

At last, long after I had given up all hope, I have finally caught a male!
This specimen was taken in the Wilderness, in Whiteknights Park, Reading, UK, on 2014-09-13.

It is new to Britain! It is good news that you have caught a specimen. Perhaps you could write up a note in the Dipterists Digest. If you want any help or info my email address is: mackland@btinternet.com

I should be interested to learn about the habitat.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
