Hello! I need some help for getting an ID. I don't have pictures and I will try to describe it. I think it is a Helophilus species: male, 10-11mm, eyes meeting in a point. face yellow, with out a stripe black, antenna black with the arista brown. Thoracic dorsum: black, with 2 broad longitudinal stripes, yellowish, and others 2 in lateral sides. the abdomen has on the tergite 2 yellow to brown spots, tergite 3 also yellow spots, but smaller than the others one and tergite 4 with a thin band, yellowish. leg 3: entirely black, almost the base of the tibia brown. the others legs have the tibia and the tars yellow. Catch at Satchinez Reserve, May, 8th., Timisoara. I will try to get some photos too, but maybe you can get me an idea. I don;t believe it is H. trivitattus, maybe more hybridus (but the face it is yellow) Best wishes, Amalia |

Hi Amalia, if eyes meeting, it's again a Mesembrius.  Regards. Stephane. |

thank you Stephane. I had the impression that Mesembrius has black face and because of that I didn't check it  . but now I read about it and it is indeed Mesembrius, and This time peregrinus with any doubt. Thank you again Best wishes, Amalia |
