I'm not really qualified to comment on the ID, but I have to say that those are great photos! |

Yes, no doubts, Aciura coryli, and this host plant possibly has not been recorded yet. Val |

Thank you for the confirmation, Valery. Our Location Wattwil is on the north side of the Alps. In the Book "Tephritidae" (Insecta Helvetica, Volume 10, 1994) writes Bernhard Merz analogy: " Distribution: the whole mediterranean region”. Best regards Urs |

I mean that it has never been reported to infest Leonurus yet. Furthermore, it has not been recorded from Switzerland yet. May I please ask you to ask you for a permission to publish this record with your photo(s) to have proofs for updating Fauna Europaea database?

I understand, by the way, the exact name of the plant is Leonurus cardiaca. If I can help, no problem, you can use my images for the database and for scientific purposes. Thank you. Regards Urs |
