Presumably caught in S France? Not procellaris, but could be imbrida, quinquemaculata, pluvialis; small characters to identiify females of these are not visible I am afraid.

Hi

spotted Anthomyia seem to be called "pluvialis" almost by default, is there a simple way to key imbrida, quinquemaculata, pluvialis etc, I am thinking specifically of UK species, but one assumes there are not too many non UK spotty Anthomyninds?
