Hello,
is an ID of this fly possible? Body length more than 10 mm (not measured).
Criorhina or maybe another genus?
Thanks, Marion

Hello Marion,

a Brachypalpus female, I think.

Brachypalpus valgus or B. laphriformis. I would prefer B. valgus as the forns in shiny and thoraic dorsum as well (at least from this angle). Also a white arista (my personal identification feature) suggests valgus.

Hello Jürgen and treebeard,

Thank you very much for ID.
It seems that I have overlooked the genus Brachypalpus, because this specimen looks much stouter than other females photographed some years ago. I`ll store it as Brachypalpus cf. valgus.
Here
https://diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=48468&highlight=Brachypalpus&pid=210165#post_210165
is an old photo of another specimen from the same location photographed in June which should then be a Brachypalpus laphriformis with the dusted frons and dark arista (if nothing speaks against).

Best wishes,
Marion

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
