Hello, I photographed this fly on Monte Bazzano (AQ), Italy, 700m a.s.l. on May 31st 2024. Is it a Dexia? And is it possible to identify its species from these photos? Thank you in advance, Emanuele ESant attached the following image:  [283.74Kb] Edited by ESant on 27-08-2024 23:04 |

Could be, but the parafacial looks hairy in first pic (?) Theo |

Thank you! Unfortunately I don't have better pictures. I uploaded a cropped version of the first photo, but I can't say whether the parafacial is actually hairy or if it's just an artifact of light reflection.

Yes, I think it is a trick of the light and male Dexia rustica is good to go Theo |
