This is another of the fly species from my most recent trip to Bulgaria found at Popovi Livadi Pass on 3 August 2012. I think it might just be Phasia hemiptera but wanted to just check that this is correct and that i is not a different species.

Many thanks

Alan

Yes, a very dark male Phasia hemiptera - the orange hairs on the side of the thorax are very distinctive :)
