Female Heliozeta pellucens, unless I misjudge the arista (difficult to see) Theo |

Which I did (misjudging the arista). So it is a female Clytiomyia. There appear to be no white hairs on pleurae, in which case it is C. continua. Theo |

Nice photos for the gallery Theo - how would the arista look in the alternative - Eliozeta spp.? Manager of the UK Species Inventory in the Angela Marmont Centre for UK Biodiversity at the Natural History Museum, London. |

well, in E. pellucens it is largely thickened, up to 2/3th. And helluo has such arista, but is much more yellow. The last pic clearly shows the bare parafrontalia in female, which settles the genus Clytiomyia inmediately. Theo |

Yes, thanks, the hairs are clearly dark, so C. continua it is. (otherwise: C. sola) Theo |
