This Brachycera was found on a flower in a garden just outside of Stockholm Sweden end of June 2025. Is it possible to say what genus this is or even species? olep attached the following image:  [228.44Kb] Edited by olep on 28-02-2026 16:37 |

Sicus sp. (Conopidae) Edit: The 2nd abdominal segment is distinctly longer than wide: probably a female Sicus ferrugineus. Edited by eklans on 28-02-2026 16:37 Greetings, Eric |

Many thanks Eric! There is only one Sicus species present in Sweden, so this must be Sicus ferrugineus Best Regards Ole |
