I photographed this 1 cm tachinid fly on July 5th at Leerdam, Netherlands. Is it possible to tell which species or genus it is? Thank you in advance. Jan Zwaaneveld attached the following image:  [134.76Kb] http://slamenietd...web-log.nl |

Good call cosmln - densely hairy eyes, projecting mouth edge and yellow basicosta all say "Linnaemya"  but it is much harder to say which species it might be  |

Given the locality, it should be L. tessellans. Theo |
