Hello, I found this fly (dead on the ground) in the Lecceta di Torino di Sangro Nature Reserve (CH), Italy on May 29th 2022. I think it may be a Therioplectes tunicatus rather than T. gigas, mostly based on the colour of the hairs on the face, but I'm not sure if that feature alone is enough to identify it. Is it possible to confirm/correct this identification? Thank you in advance, Emanuele ESant attached the following image:  [301.47Kb] Edited by ESant on 16-06-2022 23:30 |
