Hello, My first post on this forum ! I just tried to identify the fly below : using the online key of van Veen, I reach the species Physocephala vittata. It was caught in the southern Alps (details below). As this is my first try with Conopid flies, could someone confirm this identification ? Thank you very much ! P.S. : I can make other pictures if necessary  Collector : Sylvain Allombert Location : Le Bersac, Hautes-Alpes, France Date : 9th may 2009 altitude : 670 size: 10,5 mm |

Well, it looks good for Physocephala. Hopefully an expert can comment on the actual species.
