Hi all!

My tendency goes to T. sudeticus, although the eyes seem a bit greenish on the pics (-> T. bovinus?) On location green or brown depended on the sunlight's direction

Size: gigantic (approx. 2.5 cm)

16.7.2022, Germany, Upper Bavaria, near the summit of Mt. Hochfelln, ~1640m asl, coordinates 47.76121, 12.55959

Colouration of antenna is only distinctive feature. Sudeticus it is.

Many thanks Theo!

That's the first time I read that for sudeticus/bovinus - good to know for the future.

I guess it's similar with the male, where I took care to post at least one photo with visible antenna colour.
Best greetings
Rupert

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
