I found this in Szeged, S. Hungary, on 13. 06. 2012. It looks like Leucophora male to me. Is it it possible ti ID? Thanks for any help in advance! Henrik piros attached the following image:  [192.45Kb] Edited by piros on 28-03-2013 00:14 |

This fly indeed looks like Leucophora, but I think this is a Delia species. I don’t dare to say something about a speciesname, because I don’t have enough knowledge about this kind of typical Delia species. |

Based on the small abdomen, yellowish tibia, absent of broad gena and general looks of this fly...... Mostly the abdomen of Leucophora(in male and female) are more oval and I don't know any such small Leucophora, with also yellowish tibia. There are some Delia species, with very broad parafacial and therefore can look like Leucophora. Mostly those Delia species can be found at coastal regions or around lake area Edited by javanerkelens on 28-03-2013 00:43 |

Thanks a lot again! I must admit I was puzzled by the yellowish tibia... And indeed, I found this fly near a somewhat salty body of temporary water! |
