Hello, are Hilara generally not identifiable from photos? This 3.5 mm male is from a gate over a forest path (northwest Germany).

Empis. Hilara males are dichoptic and the shape of vein R4 is different. |

Hello John, John Carr wrote: Empis. Hilara males are dichoptic and the shape of vein R4 is different. very interesting, thanks! I thought the swollen forelegs were characteristic for Hilara. On the same day I photographed another male in our garden, but I did not post it here, because the picture was so bad.
