Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Possibly Suillia gigantea? =>yes (male)

Hello,
My first thread so please tell me if I do anything wrong, and my apologies if it is the case!
The following fly looks like to be a Suillia gigantea if I refer to the criteria of the golden hair below the sternites; can you confirm this or tell me what it could be instead?
And if it is a gigantea, would it be useful that I add it to the gallery? I have not been able to find any photo of it.
Thank you for your help!

Date:23/9/2012
Location:Vevey, Switzerland
Habitat:a little wood of old trees
Size:10mm approx.
