Date: 21 july 2009 Beulaker Giethoorn Netherlands When i saw the photo at first, i was thinking at Fanniidae, but it has hairs on the meron and M1 is upcurved,.....so, is it Tachinidae or....

If no postscutellum, I can suggest you to search around Eggisops pecchiollii ( an weird idea).

Yes, I think to a Calliphorid in Melanomyiinae because of the resemblance with female Melanomyia /Morinia, but I no longer think at Eggisops, maybe Angioneura ? Could it be ? Stephane. |

with postscutellum things turn even more weird! Costa is very spiny as well. Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 21-07-2009 22:32 |

I have looked at some Callip / Tachi...for the postscutellum, but a little difficult to see...looks more like Calliphoridae. Joke Edited by javanerkelens on 21-07-2009 22:34 |

It certainly doesn't look like any tachinid I have seen ... but that's not a good guide ... if it has a subscutellum then it becomes very interesting  The subscutellum should be a small, smoothly-rounded bulge under the scutellum. Don't be confused by the way that the thorax on all flies protrudes to where the abdomen attaches. I took some photos that you might find useful here

It is really something special. I understand the suggestion of Angioneura. I see relatively strong apical scutellar bristles, so I'm still in doubt. I would really need to check the postscutellum myself. Joke, would it be possible to send the specimen ? If so, send me a PM for address Theo |

So I'd like to nominate Stephane for the best ID of the year, I've seen the specimen just now and it is indeed, a female of Angioneura acerba. Great find and great pictures, please submit to gallery Theo |
