Hello,

I think this is an Empis sp., but can it be further determines? Length approximately 1 cm or a little less. Location: Germany, Rhineland-Palatinum, 53572 Unkel, River Rhine valley, dry and warm habitat, May 02nd, 2011.

Because I have problems in uploading ´photos, here´s the link:

Thanks in advance,

Empis (Leptempis) maculata group sp. To many characters important for ID are not (well) visisble for me to put a name on it. Did you collect the specimen?

Hello Paul,

thanks for your answer. No, I havn`t collected the speciman. But I have 3 more ohotos to show; perhaps they can help identifying the fly.

Greetings from the River Rhine valley in Germany,

Michael
