Hi


I would like to share this beautiful fly from southern Europe. This photo was photographed by a friend of mine Antonio(aser) in Seville last year in final Summer.
I showed it to David Gibbs and this fly turns out to be a possible Heteralonia aeacus. The distribution of this bombyllid is also known for Portugal. Hopefully Valter can spot this Heteralonia.
Enjoy.

EDIT: Faunaeur has this species as Heteralonia (Zygodipla) aeaca. For now I'll use this name. Seems to be coeherent with the Latin syntax.
