Hi

I found this fly in my Garden August 31th, 2013.

Size: 1.5 cm.

Is this Tolmerus cf atricapillus?

Location: Switzerland, Zurich, 500 m above Sea level

Best regards, Jodok.

It is a female and therefore almost impossible to determine. But it could be Tolmerus atricapillus but also T. micans. We need a male to look at...
