Looks like Phasia aurigera or aurulans to me but I see them very rarely so we'd need one of the north European experts to confirm that Smile

It surely looks a lot like a female aurigera (surely not aurulans!). Has it been recorded from Sweden before? Quite common here in Germany, but to my knowledge it might be new to Scandinavia!

Hi Jaakko !
Sorry I missed your answer back in october...
If it is aurigera , it would be new to Sweden. To bad I don't collect Diptera. awkward

Will for sure start to collect when this years season starts here in Sweden...

Are there other candidates than Phasia aurigera ?

Would love to take away the "?", for a new one in Sweden ...
