 Hello,

can anyone help me to identify this fly. I found it on June, 25. in Switzerland.
The location was a meadow near a forest. The size of the fly is around 5-6 mm.
Thank you.

Regards,

Urs

 Thecophora is ok, but species ID seems impossible (see http://www.dipter...ost_172601).

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
