Big black fly with yellow marketings, black legs and yellow feet. Could it be Nowickia ferox? amaira attached the following image:  [110.41Kb] |

Nowickia certainly - but not ferox I think - the black is too extensive on T5  |

I agree, it is very dark, however, nigripalpis (the only other obvious species in Sweden) in even lighter. Morevoer, I think i just see the tip of yellow palpi in the first pic. Which would make it ferox. Theo |

Thankyou so much, both of you! Sorry I don?t have better pictures, but the palpi is indeed yellow.
