Could anyone identify the species shown on the attached picture? The photo was taken in Préfailles (Dept. Loire Atlantique, France) on a meadow about 400 m from the Atlantic Ocean shore on 09.08.2014. Thanks!

It seems that abdomen, below wings, is somehow red, and legs are like those from ignava . |

The strong spine-like bristles beneath f3 are these of Xylota segnis.

But it seems that those bristles are quite specific for segnis. Edited by ValerioW on 01-09-2014 19:27 |
