Hi, I have this pic:
www.mariodiges.com/fotos/Insectos/Hydrotaea.jpg named lik Hydrotaea but I found this:
www.syrphidae.com/images/magick.php/species/Psilota_anthracina.jpg and I'm confused.
This fly flies like a Syrphidae.
Some idea?
Thanks
Regards.

Not Psilota, it is indeed a calyptratae fly, maybe Tachinidae.
