Hi I have a single specimen of this male species that I think is Eupeodes lapponicus. As this species is not reported from here (Faroe Islands) it would be great to get a second opinion. The only Eupeodes recorded here is E. corollae. Thanks Jógvan F Jogvan F attached the following image:  [284.69Kb] Edited by Jogvan F on 17-12-2024 21:56 |

E. lapponicus's Vein R4+5 is strongly bent not only a little as in your picture. Greetings from Switzerland dipdip attached the following image:  [152.89Kb] Edited by dipdip on 10-12-2024 20:50 |

Thanks "dipdip" I was also thinking about that. Any guess what this species might be. Which characters need to be highlighted? Thanks Jógvan F |

Thanks for reply Juergen and Andrew I have the book of van Veen 2004 but I need experience as I need with the Heleomyzidae, Andrew  I agree with E. luniger. Not only with the spots not reaching the margin but also the postocular orbit. Gets norrow towards vertex as seen on the attached photo. So if everybody are ok, this will be corrected to Eupeodes luniger (a new species for the Faroe Islands) Thanks Jógvan F (I don't know what happened with the photo, but it is ok when you open it) Jogvan F attached the following image:  [43.67Kb] Edited by Jogvan F on 16-12-2024 00:10 |

Hi, Did you verify that it's not E. corollae? The genitalia seem large and the yellow spots don't always reach the margins of the tergites, especially in males. Regards, Florian |

Hi Florian Thanks for the information on the spots (they are not in the key) The hairs on the scutellum are both yellow and black which also should lead to E. corollae. I also attach photo of genitalia. They are large, but are they large enough Jógvan F Jogvan F attached the following image:  [233.35Kb] |
