I have just been having a look at some specimens that I'd originally labelled "Z.zernyi" because that's what I'd been led to believe ... but now that I come to key them (using Die Fliegen) they all run to Z.sicardi. This one is mainly for Theo but I'd be interested to hear his opinion :)

Hi Chris

Not that I can help, but do you have a dorsal view?

Yes, that link shows one of the specimens that I am calling Z.sicardi ... the T1+2 median marginals are not obvious but they are there in a few of the photos. :)

Just a quick update - Theo has let me know that he believes that these are all Zeuxia sicardi :)

I see clearly marginals on tergite 2, so that's why I call this sicardi. It resembles my sicardi.
