Hi, I wonder if this could be Pollenia atramentaria? It was collected in Gothenburg on May 19.
I don't have access to any keys or detailed descriptions that include the species, so it is possible there are more characters I should check.

Is it correct that Pollenia atramentaria is the only Pollenia species with setae on the stem vein?
And by the way, where could I find images of the genitalia of this species?
