Hi Spotted this one in 21st October 2013 near Corylus avellana in Povoa Dao - Viseu - PORTUGAL. I wonder if this could be a C. cf. dives.

Anyone agree? I only want to confirm the species as if it is C. dives it would be new for Portugal. Thanks! |

Externally it seems to me to fit the description of speciosa more than dives. The wing should be 'brownish tinted' for dives and here it looks clear. Also the haltere looks to be dark with a yellowish stem. The bases of the tibiae on the fore and mid legs look especially light. Also the pattern of light and dark on the side of the abdomen seems to fit speciosa slightly more than dives. So I suggest that it might be Callomyia speciosa rather than C. dives. Jeremy |

the wings are perfectly clear - there are no patches of any kind. Yes, the halter has the description you gave. I will put as C. cf. speciosa.  |

Hi, I also agree with C. dives, Jeremy if you want, I can explain why. Cheers, Michal
