Difficult female anthomyiid, there are many that look like this. The red is the anterior half of the frontal stripe, also like this in many speccies. It is probably a female Delia species. |

thank you very much Michael for your comment. Today I found some Leucophora sp.(?) in front of the holes of digging wasps (Nomada lathburiana).. Must be a accidental I think.. And this must be a male Leucophora sp. ? What I find obvious, is that some of the Leucophora got a pure white face, other got some black parafacal mascara..
