Hello Tachinid-addicts (and everybody else) Is it possible to identify this Cylindromyia to species ? The picture is not very sharp, but it is the only one I have. Sclaigneaux , Belgium June 28 2006 Thanks for your help Philippe Philippe moniotte attached the following image:  [104.35Kb] |

I don't think it is possible because features like vibrissae and leg bristles aren't visible - and it isn't bicolor (the easy one!).  |

True, the black vittae on the thorax are very broad, if the picture is not misleading, so in nearly all cases this will be a male of C. interrupta. Given locality (and date), this might be considered a positive ID. Theo |
