Dear forum, aug, 2nd, 2015, garden, northern upper rhine rift, southwest germany, 6mm. Visiting blossoms of Oxalis corniculata (creeping woodsorrel) and attacking small black 7mm-solitary bees with long antennas, which visited these blossoms as well and which I could not identify. When resting, this fly often lifted legs 1, not together, but one after the other, which looked like greeting:-) Does this fly belong to the Thecophora atra-species-group? Thanks in advance for taking a look at this. Best wishes, Thorsten ThorstenRoeder attached the following image: [37.69Kb] Edited by ThorstenRoeder on 02-08-2015 17:08 |

Dear Forum, when looking at the answer to Kurt`s fly from july, 26th (http://www.dipter...d_id=68548), I guess, that mine must stay Thecophora sp. (round T. atra), too, right?
