Conopidae...Wing colouration matches Physocephala sp in the gallery....but I'm definately no expert.

No. You have fallen in a ptifall.  This is Syrphidae. Ceriana! maybe the C. cf. vespiformis. Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 10-07-2009 16:10 |

Ceriana conopsoides, scutellum is bicoloured. In C. vespiformis it is solely yellow. |

yes, that's it caliprobola. That's why I was not sure about the species. And it is *pitfall* not ptifall. Roger, soon you will be able to ID many flies!  You have time. Just enjoy. |
