First guestimate: Empis aestiva but I would need to check.

One thread where it seemed to be certain is a female with long bristles on the femora, I had a female on 3rd May like that which I posted not long ago. I don't think that has the same wing venation though. http://diptera.in...d_id=38456 Edited by blowave on 27-06-2011 13:14 http://cubits.org... |
