Hi, Center of France 17th of april 2022 near a pool. When I saw this Eristalis on the screen I noticed that something was sticking out under the tergite 4. Has anyone heard of stepsipterans parasitizing syrphidae. Unfortunately I don't have any more precise pictures. ![]() ![]() Edited by evdb on 18-04-2022 16:50 Eugene |

This looks like mechanical damage to me - a bird, perhaps?

OK Tony, probably the reason why it was not very active.
