Hi


I found this fly in Silgueiros - Viseu in 29th March 2006. In the same place of Dalmannia conopid.

It is Voriini, not sure about the genus.

EDIT: Title changed from "Tachinidae - Voriini - Voria or Athrycia?" to "Tachinidae - Voriini - Voria ruralis"

Jorge,


It is the genus Voria itself, and therefore V. ruralis.

It seems that the question was overlooked. Here it again:
In Europe which are the other Voria besides ruralis?

According to Fauna europaea, the genus is monospecific in Europe.

I haven't seen any yet but I think they are fairly uncommon. Crosskey (1976) lists 3 species: facialis, fulvipes & siberita Smile
