Hi there, attracted my attention by the quite loud wing sound it made. Only one shot in focus, how far can it be determined? Found on a meadow in Lower Austria, mid June My guesses would be Bombylius or Anastoechus... Best, Lorin Carnifex attached the following image:  [58.39Kb] Edited by Carnifex on 24-06-2016 10:27 |

Bombylius or Systoechus  Anastoechus has a very different head shape  And Dischistus is completely ruled out. No chances of any other genus in Austria.But my guess is Bombylius. I don't know any species of Systoechus with such an abdominal pattern. Edited by Piluca_Alvarez on 08-07-2016 18:06 |
