I'm a bit confused with this black fly. The median vein don't reach the margin, by the petiole seems a Rhinophorid or Tachinid. I don't see if in the parafacial is a row of bristles running down from the antennae to the mouth (that would exclude the tribe Wagneriini of the black Tachinids, thanks Chris) 29.06.2014 - North Italy   Thanks for the help!

OK, everybody makes this mistake once a lifetime (Seguy persisted in making this mistake). Good for you you didn't trust yourself ! Rhinophoridae never have an appendix to bend in vein M. If it does, and it is so blackish: Nyctia halterata (Sarcophagidae). Which is very variable in the petiole !! (open, closed or petiolated like this one). Theo |

Theo, thank for you explanation. My first think was Nyctia halterata, but the petiole was different from other subject that I found before and I didn't knew it was variable. Thank you so much for the info, I'll remember it! Best regards, Marcello http://www.flickr...loconsolo/ |
