Close.

It is auripila (note the golden hairs)

Thanks a lot Theo, but how do I have to understand this? In the gallery here, it's called H. aterrima var. auripila, and in the catalogue of diptera in Bavaria http://www.zsm.mw...BayKat.pdf there is no auripila either. (of course, it was not in Bavaria, but extremely close to it).

So, is auripila meanwhile established as an own species or is it still a variant of aterrima?

Thanks in advance for your answer
Rupert
