Dear Forum,

2 of these flys were found on Daucus carota. I thought with that wind pattern it should be easy to find, but I didn't succeed... Melanophora roralis? Who can help?

Thanks,


Markus

Hello Markus, the colours/reflections were a bit misleading but I think it's a female Rhinophora lepida.

I’m sorry, but I don’t think it is Rhinophoridae, but Nyctia halterata (Calliphoridae).
Best wishes, Niels-Jan Dek

Nyctia halterata is belonging to Sarcophagidae.

As long as you don’t use Seguy, it is not a Rhinophoridae. 😀
