Very stylish indeed! I think it might be a Muscid, but I wouldn't be prepared to swear to it. Susan |

Phasia barbifrons, to be complete. This is remarkably far north. It is not given for Sweden by faunaeur.org. Christer Bergstrom (Uppsala) is the expert for Sweden. Please consult him. Theo Zeegers |

This is apparently a species spreading in North Europe. There's - as far as I know - no material of the species in Finnish museums, but now it is rather regularly collected in southern Finland at least up to latitudes 61-62N. Kahis |

Right. First entry int The Netherlands 1966, but it got common only around 1990. And it is definitely heading north. Theo |
