Hello, this Tachypeza seems a little bit unusual to me with its thorax stripe and abdomen colouration. In abandoned courtyard (northwest Germany). I only know Tachypeza nubila so far.

Hello, This is usual colour pattern of the mesoscutum in posterior view (there are usually two light grey vittae separated by a very narrow dark median vitta and light grey spot on prescutellar depression). In dorsal view the mesoscutum is nearly uniformly grey. The abdomen probably is full of eggs. Best wishes, Igor Shamshev |

Thank you, Igor! Tachypeza (nubila) is very abundant here, and I have shot many much better photos, but I have never noticed such a stripe on its thorax.
