Don't know  . Seems to have a red/yellow tip on scutellum which M.levida has. Muscids are a bit of a black art to me .Roger the Unsure. Edited by Roger Thomason on 07-01-2010 18:27 |

Unsureness is a very respectable condition  The shape of the veins at the tip of the wing is what gave me the idea.Stephen. Edited by Stephen R on 07-01-2010 18:38 |

Yes, but Myospila meditabunda have the same shape, but I don't think it is that one...I hope. Roger the Unsure |
