20-27- V - 2008 Tilburg, Kaaistoep West Netherlands RD-coor: 128-394 from Mal.trap
Confusing fly.
It has hairs on both sides of the radial node.....so Mydaea is possible...but nothing fits.
But I don't know any Phaonia with hairs on the radial node on both sides.
Eyes haired
Arista long haird
Katepimeron haired
Calli + partly scutellum yellow
No hairs on the meron
A phaonia like pd seta
(one hair on each radial note, but ventral also two longer hairs on the beginning of vein R2+3)

Except the setulae on dorsal radial node (mistery), all seems to point to
Phaonia mediterranea...

You are great ! :D
According to Hennig there is een resemblance with P.errans!
And the hairs on the R2+3 are mistaken and are indeed on vein R4+5.
And sternite 1 is setulose (whit 3 strong hairs ad the end)
The only mistery is indeed the seta on dorsal radial node. (checked again, but it is there)
A nice catch, would please Jan Willem also I think..!!
(not found yet in the Netherlands)
Many thanks
Joke :)

Yes it certainly pleases me:). Sofar the list of Muscidae known from "De Kaaistoep" is very short, so every species new for the list pleases me, but a species new for the fauna of the Netherlands pleases me even more!
