 Hello, i would kindly ask an expert to identify this fly. I'm n o t sure if this Temnostoma meridionale. Maybe one could add spots that makes clear where and what is the difference of T. meridionale and T. vespiforme :). I saw this fly in the Bavarian Alps near Berchtesgaden, June 2016. Thank you.

 Take care Markus, thorax pattern isn't matching fully. It's a female of T. vespiforme

 here is how it should appear a T. meridionle (I know I'm not Leonardo Da Vinci, or Tiziano...so sorry about image quality). Hope it can help

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.
