 I think, it is not a Syrphid

11 May 2017, Slovakia, Banska Bystrica, black alder forest near cattle farm, as large as smaller bumblee, plumose arista

I have no idea, what it is, Tachinidae?

Thank you in advance

 Compare Mesembrina mystacea in the Muscidae gallery.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
