Hello,

This Anthomyia sp. ♂ came across the sheet during a night hunt. Do you think it is possible to identify the species?

Impossible to go further in the determination?

Hello JC, the photos are a bit blurry - would be nice to see the hind tibiae and the arista sharply.
But the 3 postsutural spots are confluent as do the lateral ones with the spot on the wingbase. The grey area on the scutellum is restricted to apex.
Following Michelsen (2008): "The Anthomyia pluvialis complex in Europe" we find Anthomyia quinquemaculata which is a species of the Mediterranean Subregion.
Greetings, Eric K

The choice in my view is restricted between procellaris and quinquemaculata and with only theese photos we can't be shure; but for what can be seen of hind tibiae I'd vote for quinquemaculata
Best regards,
Carlo

Ok thank you, I think we can say that in terms of reliability of the determination, Anthomyia quinquemaculata is neither certain nor very probable, but probable.
