20-27- V - 2008 Tilburg, Kaaistoep West Netherlands RD-coor: 128-394 from Mal.trap

Confusing fly.
It has hairs on both sides of the radial node.....so Mydaea is possible...but nothing fits.
But I don't know any Phaonia with hairs on the radial node on both sides.

Eyes haired
Arista long haird
Katepimeron haired
Calli + partly scutellum yellow
No hairs on the meron
A phaonia like pd seta
(one hair on each radial note, but ventral also two longer hairs on the beginning of vein R2+3)

Except the setulae on dorsal radial node (mistery), all seems to point to Phaonia mediterranea...

You are great ! Grin

According to Hennig there is een resemblance with P.errans!
And the hairs on the R2+3 are mistaken and are indeed on vein R4+5.
And sternite 1 is setulose (whit 3 strong hairs ad the end)
The only mistery is indeed the seta on dorsal radial node. (checked again, but it is there)

A nice catch, would please Jan Willem also I think..!!
(not found yet in the Netherlands)
Many thanks

Yes it certainly pleases meSmile. Sofar the list of Muscidae known from "De Kaaistoep" is very short, so every species new for the list pleases me, but a species new for the fauna of the Netherlands pleases me even more!
