Hello, This keys out as Cheilosia pagana, can anyone confirm it? I think it shows most details and would be a nice addition to the gallery. 14th July, my garden near Lincoln UK. Janet blowave attached the following image:  [121.08Kb] Edited by blowave on 14-09-2011 21:58 http://cubits.org... |

Nope. It's Cheilosia bergenstammi, male. |

Thanks Andre, you are correct of course! I'm afraid I was being really sloppy!  I had another male earlier the same day which doesn't have hairs on the eyes, it's not that often I see more than one in a day! The other I think is Cheilosia pagana, but I had better post that too to be certain. This one was resting late in the day, most shots we in dullness but I angled this one against the sky. If I had checked them properly I would have seen the hairs from a different angle, I should also have posted another angle but being human and doing all these things often late in the day sometimes leads to sloppiness. I rarely do sloppy more than once, lesson learnt!  Nice shot of a male for the gallery anyway! blowave attached the following image:  [137.98Kb] Edited by blowave on 14-09-2011 21:54 http://cubits.org... |
