Ukraine, Rivne region, on May 19. In the forest there is geraniums on the flower. Am I sure this is Empis pennipes?

Here in NW Europe I would say yes, but perhaps similar species are present in your area. E. pennipes is well known for visiting Geranium robertianum.

Thank you, Paul ! So far, this is the only find, I do not know if this kind of fixation was previously recorded in Ukraine: http://www.ukrbin...p?id=40434 Edited by Gansucha on 28-05-2019 19:19 |
