Hello,
can anyone help me to identify this fly. I found it on June, 27. in Switzerland.
The location was a meadow near a forest.
Thank you.
Regards,
Urs

Hello,
thanks a lot for your answer. Is it possible to say which species?
Could it be a chloromyia formosa, or are there several possibilities?
Regards
Urs

Yes, it is a female Ch. formosa.
You might have Ch. speciosa in Switzerland, but probably only in the southern valleys of Wallis and Tessin....
It has the metatars of middle- and hind leg contrasting yellow coloured.
