Not Strongygaster - the petiole on this one is too long. I think Rondania is close but I'd go for Graphogaster ![]() ![]() Edited by ChrisR on 10-06-2012 15:02 Manager of the UK Species Inventory in the Angela Marmont Centre for UK Biodiversity at the Natural History Museum, London. |

Not captured. I could only take pictures without a lot closer. Then he flew ... I had never seen before. If I return to find ... Best regards. Edited by Maherjos on 10-06-2012 17:47 |

I appreciate your confirmation. It is always my pleasure to add a new copy to my photo gallery. Very interesting link attached. I had not seen the post. By the way, Theo says That this species has a strong sexual dimorphism. And ChrisR, on this other, http://www.dipter...d_id=48080, which may be the female Graphogaster. Could you ask him to see Theo?. Thanks for everything, Piluca. Warm regards from southern Spain. |

Graphogaster vestita seems an excellent ID to me. This species is rather common in the south. Otherwise, the genus is rare and more boreo-mountainous. Theo |

Theo Very grateful for your opinion Theo. And you think this, http://www.dipter...d_id=48080 could be another female this same species, or has nothing to do with it.? Best regards. |
