Could somebody put an ID on this little fly (5-6 mm.) ?

I found it parasitizing the bee Andrena vaga, but I don't think it could be Cacoxenus indagator.

Hi Jean-Claude
Don't know which fly it is....but I may have to take up the Fitness-Ultimate Stretching Routine in the other video, just for my healths sake obviously Grin

Regards Roger

EDIT; Some people (who shall remain nameless) appear to be taking a very long time studying this fly. It must be very hard to determine. Wink

You can rename your video "Leucophora ...for sure". Smile

And indeed, don't know why your video seem less attractive that the next one...
