I think it is a tachinid. I found it today, 24nd February, in Palam?s, Girona, coastal NE Spain in a holm-oak, cork-oak and Aleppo pine forest. Can anyone, please, help me with the identification? Miquel Filex attached the following image:  [59.79Kb] Edited by Filex on 25-02-2008 14:21 |

From the yellow prothoracal spiracle you can conclude: it is really P. meridionalis, already known from Spain and Portugal. |
