Searching for the name of this fly. I thought that it looks a lot like a Phasia species. Is that correct? And is there more to say about this beautiful fly? 03-10-2009, La Fontouret, Indre, France Tjitske Lubach attached the following image:  [171.86Kb] Tjitske Lubach |

Ectophasia sp. (male)  They look superficially similar but with Phasia spp. the median vein is petiolate and on Ectophasia it isn't.

Thank you for your rapid answer. I will try to study the differences. I suppose that more than Ectophasia spec can't be made of this picture. I send another one. Does that make any difference?
