A wasp (Oxybelus uniglumis) on it´s way down to the nest with a fly on the sting, from our garden in SW Sweden some days ago. Is it possible to say anything about the fly (which group/genera...)?

Regards

Krister

I'd guess Anthomyiidae (from the bristly legs) but it is just a guess. Any other photos?

Many thanks for your comments, I understand that it is not possible to get clooser! I have no more photos, and had the wasp in focus this time, but will focus more on the fly next time.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
