dear friends
* locality - Plan (Pirineos) - Huesca - SPAIN
* date - 2008.08.27
* size - about 8 mm (medium fly)
* habitat - near a river
* substrate - not so far from Cordylus avellana (very common in Plan)
I spotted this beauty flying and recognized it immediately. I told to Isidro quickly: I spotted right now the H. aurea!!! :D
The local was the best so far I ever seen for tachinids! We spotted an awesome Cistogaster (photos will come out today. ;) and other nice tachinids. Even with bad weather - very overcasted and about 20?C... it rained after one hour in the field. :(

This must be common, just overlooked. :)
