Have a nice Day. One question please. Could this be Eriothrix rufomaculata? Can the white abdomen come from pollen? The fly sits on an Eryngium planum plant. I would be very grateful for an answer. Best Wishes Karl.

Yes, Eriothrix rufomaculata is correct and the abdomen is partially dusted. Males are typically stronger dusted than females.
Greetings, Eric Kloeckner |
