Coastal lagoons, Oristano, Sardinia
25th May 2010, size 16mm
Eyes in life- bright emerald green, 1 faint band
Black antennae, white halteres, dark stripe on sternites suggests Hybomitra expollicata
Neither Fauna Europaea nor Fauna Italia list any Hybomitra sp. for Sardinia, though expollicata would be expected I think.
