 hi!
last weekend i found this fly on top of the Boubín-mountain at the bohemian forest in czech republik.

it fly arount a viewing tower on top of the mountain and was obviously hill-topping.
my search through the forum showed me resemblance with Cephenemyia stimularor, but i couldn´t find out, if other species of the genus look similar. is my guess right? how can the other species be distinguished?

thank you!
regards, kurt

 By the way, Cephenemyiini is now just a tribe in the subfamily Oestrinae.

 Oh, and now we are nagging,

it should be ' stimulator' .
Just to be clear to the audience.

Great find and excellent picture !
