Yep, it's the female of Cheilosia caerulescens, often seen in gardens were the female lays her eggs in plants like Sempervivum arachnoideum, S. montanum en S. tectorum. Others mentioned are Geum montanum, Solidago virgaurea en Tussilago farfara. Greetings Edited by Gerard Pennards on 23-01-2010 19:19 Greetings, Gerard Pennards |
