this seems baccha. I?ve seen there?s a gender of Bombyliidae, "Systropus" that has the same shape; it?doesn?t appear in fauna europaea but, is there any gender of bombyliidae with a similar shape here in europe? thanks paqui attached the following image: [17.22Kb] |

From the wing venation it is clear that it is Baccha.

Systropus is laterally flattened not horizontally. It also has long antennae, unlike Baccha and related hover flies. The legs are much longer. I think Systropus is an oriental genus, but I might well be wrong. http://xespok.net/gallery/Bombyliidae/DipteraB_Bombyliidae_1000033918 http://xespok.net/gallery/Bombyliidae/DipteraB_Bombyliidae_1000033917 Edited by Xespok on 27-04-2006 15:23 |

Systropus and close related genera are in North America, South America, Australia, SE Asia, India and South Africa, but not in the tropical Africa or most of the Palaearctic (they are in Korea). There is one species in Israel, Egypt, that is the closest this group comes to Europe... Cheers Martin Martin Hauser |
