Hi Forum,

Photographed in Lower Austria, Austria, @ 15. July 2012.

Which one is it?

insects.at/images/originals/Diptera/Stratiomyidae/Odontomyia_angulata_A_0712C.jpg

It should be obvious, i think - but i can't find it.

Cheers
Per

No Syrphid, it is Stratiomyidae - Odontomyia angulata (http://www.dipter...to_id=8199) Smile.

Odontomyia: quite well possible.
angulata: I am not quite sure whether they have it in Australia...

Well, I have no Stratiomyidae key, but from many pictures (e. g. http://intruiging...a-viridula) I learnt that Oplodonta viridula has dotted eyes, and also the colouration of the frons looks different.
